Remember to apply for funding for pedagogical development from the Faculty of Science and Technology's University Pedagogical Renewal Fund, TUFF, no later than September 5th.
The faculty's annual call for funding of pedagogical development (TUFF) is now open. With the call, the faculty wants to promote and support projects for pedagogical development of educational programmes, freestanding courses and courses in lifelong learning, on campus and in online environments (doctoral studies are exempt, there are other funding opportunities for development of such courses).
The funding is primarily intended for personnel cost, however involvement of external partners, nationally and internationally, is highly recommended. Project funding is not granted for course development; there must be a clear new pedagogical idea .
Please find more information on the application, the assessment criteria, previously funded projects and what the application must cover here: Science and Technology faculty funding for pedagogical development - Uppsala University (uu.se)
