Grants and Awards
For Faculty
Improvement of Instruction Grants
The Office of the Dean for Undergraduate Studies and its Center for Teaching
Excellence request proposals each academic year for Improvement of Instruction

Merrill Presidential Scholars Program
CTE is proud to announce that our very successful annual "Celebrating Teachers"
awards program has become part of the
Merrill Presidential Scholars Program.
For Teaching Assistants
Lilly East Conference Grants
The Lilly
Conferences combine interactive workshop sessions, discussions, and feature
presentations, with opportunities for informal discussion about excellence in
college and university teaching and learning. They bring together faculty and
graduate students from across disciplines and types of academic institutions.
CTE staff, along with University of Maryland faculty and graduate teaching
assistants, have attended this conference for
a number of years. It is an outstanding opportunity to meet others from the
Mid-Atlantic interested in the scholarship of teaching and learning and to
discuss effective strategies for undergraduate education.
CTE offers conference grants for
graduate students

and honored. These awards are sponsored by the Center for Teaching Excellence,
the Dean for Undergraduate Studies, and the Dean of the Graduate School.
