UCI Teach Day 2023
About UCI Teach Day
UCI Teach Day is an all-day celebration and conference on September 19th for UCI faculty, staff, and graduate students who strive to foster a culture of inclusion and equity for our undergraduates. The theme for 2024 is “Striving for Equity, Together.” The day will include a keynote address by Dr. Whitney Peoples (University of Michigan), a student panel, and breakout sessions focused on education research, professional development opportunities, and facilitated discussions on pressing educational issues. The day will end with our 32nd Annual Celebration of Teaching, which serves as an opportunity to recognize the Dr. De Gallow Professor of the Year, Most Promising Future Faculty, and additional instructors who have been honored with a campus teaching award over the past year.
