Teaching Equity-Centered Engineering

Below are some upcoming equity-centered Teaching Circles open to Michigan Engineering instructors.

DEI Teaching Circles

Teaching Equity-Centered Engineering (TEE)

In collaboration with the Associate Dean of Undergraduate Education and the Center for Socially Engaged Design, CRLT-Engin is offering Equity-Centered Engineering Teaching Circles for instructors interested in co-developing DEI content for their engineering courses and creating equitable and inclusive classroom environments. These teaching circles are a part of the NSF-funded Teaching Engineering Equity Center at Michigan Engineering.

In the Teaching Circles, engineering faculty will explore and practice equity-focused teaching (EfT) strategies, design or revise course materials, and exchange feedback in a supportive environment. Faculty will receive a $1000 stipend for their active participation.

Now in their 3rd iteration, these popular teaching circles will be offered again in May-June 2025. For faculty interested in participating in this teaching circle, please indicate your interest here.

If you have any questions related to this teaching circle, please contact us at equity-tc-crlt-engin@umich.edu.

Inclusive STEM Teaching MOOC

The Inclusive STEM Teaching Project is an NSF-funded, multi-institutional massive open online course (MOOC) that was created to advance inclusive teaching practice in higher education. This course typically runs twice a year from October – November and March – April. Since 2020 CRLT has offered learning communities to complement the online content. Starting in Fall 2023, we will no longer offer a learning community. However, UM STEM faculty, postdocs and graduate students are still welcome to take the MOOC.
