UC DAVIS: OFFICE OF THE CHANCELLOR October 20, 2003 DEANS, DIRECTORS, DEPARTMENT CHAIRS AND CAMPUS ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICERS SUBJECT: 2004-2005 Chancellor's Teaching Fellowships I am pleased to issue this call for applications for the Chancellor's Teaching Fellowship Program. The program provides graduate students with opportunities to participate in closely supervised teaching apprenticeships with UC Davis faculty members. This fellowship program is open to graduate students in all disciplines and carries a stipend for one quarter of the 2004-05 academic year that is equivalent to the salary of a half-time Associate-In ($1,746.72 per month) as well as a fee waiver for the quarter in which the course is taught. The primary purpose of this fellowship is to enhance the preparation of potential future faculty by supporting close collaborative relationships between the teaching fellows and faculty members acknowledged as exemplary teachers. The apprenticeship relationship is the critical aspect of the program. However, the select nature of this award is also intended to honor those graduate students who have demonstrated exceptional promise as educators at the post-secondary level. A description of the program, application, and selection procedures are available at: http://trc.ucdavis.edu/TRC/TAprograms/CTF/ctfinfo.html. The deadline for the submission of applications is Friday, January 9, 2004. The 2004-05 Chancellor's Teaching Fellowship awards will be announced by Spring Quarter 2004. The early deadline and announcement should help departments and graduate students plan support for the 2004-05 academic year. Applicants are encouraged to attend one of the following informational meetings in 25 Wellman Hall: Thursday, November 6, 9 a.m., or Wednesday, November 12, 2 p.m., or Monday, November 17, 1 p.m. For more information or assistance, contact Will Davis, Coordinator of Graduate Student Programs, Teaching Resources Center (752-6050). Sincerely, Larry N. Vanderhoef Chancellor Directive #03-122
