Wisconsin Teaching Fellows and Scholars, 2026-27

Application Deadline (for UWL applicants)

OPID’s Wisconsin Teaching Fellows and Scholars (WTFS) Program is designed to provide the time, space, and support to systematically reflect with UW peers in a stimulating and open-minded community and, ultimately, to move from scholarly teaching to the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL). The WTFS program is administered by the Universities of Wisconsin’s Office of Professional and Instructional Development (OPID) and directed by UW faculty.

The WTFS Program models and promotes effective teaching and learning through creating a community of learners. The program is seeking participants to join a community of educators to design, develop, and implement Scholarship of Teaching & Learning (SoTL) that explores innovative and emerging pedagogies, and is grounded in a commitment that all students should succeed and thrive in our classrooms. Participants may be seasoned educators with 10+ years of teaching experience (Scholars) or earlier in their teaching careers (Fellows). Faculty and instructional academic staff are welcomed and encouraged to apply.

Common characteristics of successful WTFS participants: intellectual curiosity, openness to new ideas, ways of thinking, and problem-solving, collegiality and commitment to a learning community, willingness to engage with an interdisciplinary group of diverse peers, and an underlying commitment to making adjustments to account for the imbalances in students’ experiences and access to resources.

For more information and to apply, please visit the CATL WTFS website. UWL applications are due before 11:59pm on Monday, November 24, 2025.
