WHAT IS UCI-GPS-CIRTL?
UCI is now a member of the national Center for Integration of Research, Teaching and Learning which is an NSF, SLOAN and GLHEC (Great Lakes Higher Education Corporation) -funded Center dedicated to working with graduate students and postdocs to grow STEM faculty who are effective at evidence-based teaching as well as research. CIRTL campuses are a collection of 43 research universities that have committed to provide resources and support training for interested future faculty.
UCI-GPS-CIRTL is a partnership between Graduate Division and the Division of Teaching and Learning. Graduate students and postdocs can choose to participate in the programing at several different levels, depending on their interests and career goals. Students can earn certificates which document their mastery of CIRTL core ideas, including evidence-based teaching, diversity and teaching as research.
