The CIRTL Network prepares STEM graduate students and postdoctoral scholars for future teaching positions in higher education. UArizona joined the network in 2020.
Joining the CIRTL community is easy! Once you sign-up for the CIRTL program here, our program coordinator will reach out to you and show you how to get started on your certificate levels.
CIRTL participants can earn three levels of accomplishment by taking a combination of workshops and courses, conducting classroom-based research, and presenting and/or publishing on this research.
CIRTL network offerings include local events, live online courses, workshops, discussions, MOOCs, and podcasts. Recent offerings covered topics like promoting equity in STEM for all genders, reducing math anxiety, and engaging students in high-impact practices.
Have you earned your Associate Level (or equivalent) and are ready to do classroom-based research? If so, consider joining our new Teaching-as-Research (TAR) Fellows program! In this workshop-style program, you'll learn how to create, implement, and publish on a classroom-based research study you've designed.
Are you a postdoc looking to improve your teaching skills? Our new accelerated Postdoc Pathway Program combines training in pedagogy and a unique co-teaching experience to help get you ready for the classroom in just one year.
