UTC Application
Applications for the Winter 2027 - Spring 2027 cohort will open Monday, October 12th, 2026.
A Google form will be made available here on October 12th to submit your application information and a statement of interest in the program. Your statement of interest should address the following questions:
- What do you hope to get out of the program?
- What is your general approach to teaching (aims, methods, and values)?
- What are your future career objectives?
Additionally, you will need to include an email address for a letter of reference in your application. As a part of the review process, you will grant the UTC Coordinator access to view your UCR teaching evaluations on your application. If you have teaching evaluations from institutions other than UCR, you can choose to upload those documents to your application as well.
Applications for the program are due Sunday, November 22nd, 2026 by 11:59pm. After submitting your application, the UTC Coordinator will email your listed reference directly for a letter of recommendation which will be due Sunday, November 29th, 2026 by 11:59pm.
