UCSC Teaching Symposium 2024
UCSC Celebrates Teaching
UC Santa Cruz recognizes exceptional teaching being done on our campus by faculty, graduate students and staff. The Teaching Symposium kicks off Teaching Week as a space to share and recognize the work happening in every corner of campus from classrooms to research labs, from the stage to the shores of the Monterey Bay and everywhere in between. Teaching can often be the space where our creativity, expertise, and humanity come together to create learning experiences that our students will carry with them for the rest of their lives. UCSC celebrates our educators and their commitment to creating equitable and transformative learning experiences for our students. Please join us in this celebration and recognition of our campus teaching community.
This event is co-sponsored by The Teaching and Learning Center and The Committee on Teaching.
