To better prepare doctoral and master’s candidates for the rigors of teaching at the college level, the Graduate School has established the Interdisciplinary Certificate in University Teaching.
The certificate, approved last fall to be fully implemented summer semester, enables graduate students, regardless of their discipline, to work with academic departments and administrative units that support teaching and learning.
Students in the program enroll in courses related to teaching strategies, methods of learning and assessment, technology to support teaching and professional development for the academy. They also must complete classroom or laboratory teaching assistantships at the university.
More information on the certificate is available online (www.gradsch.uga.edu).
