Lilly Teaching Fellows program

The Lilly Teaching Fellows program is the University of Georgia’s premier teaching fellows program for pre-tenure faculty. It supports early-career faculty who demonstrate a strong commitment to excellence in teaching and who seek to cultivate a reflective, scholarly approach to teaching in a collaborative learning community. Each spring semester, 10 faculty members in their first, second, or third year of a tenure-track appointment are selected to participate in this two-year cohort experience beginning the following fall.

Senior Teaching Fellows program

The Senior Teaching Fellows program affirms the vital role of senior faculty in advancing a culture of teaching excellence and recognizes accomplished tenured faculty who are dedicated teaching scholars. Each spring semester, eight associate or full professors who have been at the University of Georgia for at least five years are selected to participate in this year-long program beginning the following fall.
