Description
The Teaching Advancement Grant (TAG) is an annual internal funding opportunity from New York University's Office of the Provost and Center for Teaching and Learning. It is designed to support NYU faculty in developing and implementing projects that enhance student learning and promote innovative, evidence-based teaching practices. Projects may involve new or existing courses and should demonstrate measurable impact on student learning. The program encourages inclusive, student-centered, and data-informed approaches, and supports the dissemination of outcomes both within NYU and beyond.
TAG provides extensive support to awardees, including workshops, consultations, and partnerships with teaching and learning experts throughout the grant cycle. The program aims to foster a culture of pedagogical innovation, inclusivity, and academic excellence across NYU's diverse learning environments.
