Teacher Scholar Doctoral Fellowships (TSDF) are mentored graduate teaching fellowships available to doctoral students only in an open university-wide competition supported by the College of Graduate & Postdoctoral Studies (CGPS) in partnership with the Gwenna Moss Centre for Teaching and Learning (GMCTL).
Recipients are expected to teach a course within their subject matter expertise area that has a minimum expected enrolment of at least 20 students. All recipients must meet all of the appropriate academic and/or professional qualifications before being appointed as a sessional lecturer.
A recipient’s teaching assignment can be in a different unit from that in which they are completing their graduate program, as long as the teaching assignment is still within the recipient’s and faculty mentor’s areas of subject expertise.
Recipients must ensure that their teaching responsibilities will not conflict with the requirements of the TSDF program in Term 2, including the biweekly GPS 982 meetings from 1:30 p.m. - 2:50 p.m. on Thursday afternoons. Please note that the TSDF recipient must attend these meetings in person.
Faculty mentors will need to attach the
TSDF signature page and syllabus of the course before submitting their portion of the application. If this is a new course and no syllabus is available, a general outline of the course that provides similar information must be attached.
Students must also complete their portion of the online application found at
https://www.surveymonkey.ca/r/TSDF_Student.
We expect that the student and faculty mentor will have discussed the course to be taught and the suitability of the student to teach it, including the student’s prior teaching experience, as this information is required to complete the following questions.
Deadline: Monday, March 3, 2025 at 4:30 pm CST
