Teaching and Learning

Teaching and learning has many dimensions, including establishing specific learning goals and expectations for students, designing courses, syllabi, and programs, engaging in research on teaching, keeping up-to-date on relevant knowledge, and reflecting on teaching in order to improve student learning.

We are passionate about high-quality teaching and our goal is to maximize each student's potential. The SEE office is particularly instrumental in providing an academic and peer support system for students who face social, economic, and educational barriers to careers in the health professions, science research and science teaching.

In Biological Sciences, this scholarship is reflected in the department's student learning goals, its curriculum, course syllabi, and faculty and departmental activities related to teaching.
