Mid-career faculty are tasked with becoming the next generation of faculty leaders and mentors with minimal support and limited opportunities for professional growth and mentorship (Baker et al., 2019; Hamilton, 2022). To support mid-career faculty, the Office of Teaching and Learning (OTL) developed the University Teaching Leadership Fellows…

While pedagogical practice is not mandatory in doctoral programs, many doctoral students often serve as graduate student instructors or teaching assistants for college courses.
