Teaching Support for New Faculty

July 22, 2026

The Provost’s Office, Office of Research, and Center for Teaching Excellence are launching the Pathways to Excellence program, a 14-week experience designed to provide new faculty with a foundational understanding of the teaching and research landscapes at UF. Seven of the 14 weeks focus on developing evidence-based teaching practices, four weeks are research-focused, two weeks will navigate UF and professional trajectories, and the program will conclude with a celebratory session. Participants will graduate from the Pathways to Excellence program with improved teaching practices; fully developed strategies for building a sustainable and impactful research career; and knowledge of the UF, state, and federal funding landscapes.

To learn more about Pathways to Excellence and to register for the course, visit this Center for Teaching Excellence webpage.

Deadline to Register: 08/21/2026
