A new fellowship program to support Auburn faculty in the creation of innovative honors courses will be available this summer. All faculty, both tenure-track and non-tenure-track, from all disciplines are eligible and encouraged to apply.

During the fellowship, faculty will design a new honors course with the assistance of the Honors College academic affairs staff. Through a series of three virtual workshop sessions, fellows will learn best practices in honors education, engage in discussion of their course ideas and receive feedback on ways to strengthen their proposed course materials.

Fellows are eligible for funding in subsequent semesters pending successful application. These awards include:

  • $1,000 (for a 1-hour course)
  • $3,000 (for a 3-hour course)
  • $2,000 (for co-taught courses; split between the fellows)

The deadline to apply is March 15. Details on the application process including requirements and submission guidelines can be found online.
