Learning Innovation is excited to announce that the Climate and Sustainability Teaching (CAST) Fellows Program, run in partnership with the Office of Climate and Sustainability, is open for applications for its second year. The fellowship aligns with the educational mission of the Duke Climate Commitment.
The CAST Fellows program provides support and a peer learning community dedicated to increasing the prevalence and quality of climate and sustainability concepts in academic courses across all departments.
Eligible CAST fellows will be awarded $5,000 to their Duke faculty discretionary account and receive resources, support, and guidance from pedagogy experts and faculty experienced in incorporating climate and sustainability into course curricula. The fellowship provides the opportunity to collaborate on course redesign with a cohort of peers from across campus.
Learn about the inaugural 2023-24 CAST fellows’ cohort which consisted of 12 faculty members from seven of Duke’s ten schools.
The program will run from May 6, 2024 to April 2025, although the majority of the programmatic activities will take place before December 10, 2024. For more information and to apply by January 29, see the full CFP on the Duke Climate Commitment website.
