Becoming a Scholar
About Teaching
Our graduate program at the University of Colorado Boulder is designed to enhance the teaching experience through teaching assistantships, part-time instructor roles, and the Graduate Teacher Program. This program helps students develop their teaching skills from the moment they begin their studies. Through workshops and activities, participants engage with diverse communities, improve their mentoring and advising skills, and learn evidence-based teaching methods. Graduates can earn a Certificate in College Teaching, a valuable credential recognized by over 80 research institutions and an asset for careers in higher education.
Graduate Research
The Collaborative Research Program offers small grants to faculty working in teams, fostering an environment of teamwork and innovation. Additionally, the Research Apprenticeship provides graduate students with hands-on experience, allowing them to engage directly in cutting-edge research projects alongside faculty members. This collaboration develops both student learning and faculty research outcomes.
