We are excited to announce this years Postgraduate Teaching Conference: Teaching in the in-between: Postgraduate Perspectives on SotL, held at the University of York, 17 July 2026.

This conference brings together Graduate Teaching Assistants (GTAs), postgraduate researchers, and early-career educators across the social sciences to reflect on the changing landscape of teaching in higher education. Despite delivering a significant proportion of frontline teaching, postgraduate teachers are often excluded from traditional Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) spaces and professional pedagogical networks. This conference aims to create a collaborative space for sharing teaching practices, pedagogical research, and experiences of teaching across disciplines.

The conference will be held in person at the University of York and will include paper panels, a roundtable discussion with senior staff and SoTL scholars, and a collaborative Teaching Circle.
