Faculty Fellows

ACERT invites applications for Faculty Fellows and Racial Equity in the Curriculum Fellows for the 2023-2024 academic year. Faculty Fellows work with ACERT in various ways, depending on their particular expertise and inclination. Racial Equity in the Curriculum Fellows work specifically on programming and support related to inclusive teaching and learning. (Learn more about our former Faculty Fellows and our inaugural Racial Equity Fellows and their projects.)

Full-time faculty will receive a three-credit course release during the Spring semester, subject to approval of their department chair. Part-time faculty will be paid in NTA hours.
