2024
Recruitment for the 2025-2027 fellowship years begins in the Fall of 2024, with new fellows starting June 1, 2025
The Belmont University Fellows Program provides a unique and valuable opportunity to increase hands-on teaching experience among future faculty. The fellowship focuses on professionals who recently completed their doctoral or equivalent terminal degree and desires to teach at a Christ-centered teaching-focused university. To support this, Fellows will be recruited based on their academic and professional accomplishments in their discipline. This two-year program allows for the Belmont Fellow to be mentored by a Faculty Mentor at Belmont University in the development and delivery of rigorous courses while engaging in a research program involving Belmont University students. The intent is to help develop the pipeline for faculty to transition from graduate research at “R1” institutions into teaching-research positions at institutions like Belmont.
The Fellows Program
Belmont University Fellows are appointed with a 12-month, full-time contract beginning in June. This contract includes teaching two to three courses per semester (including summer teaching/research assignments), and guidance and supervision from a faculty mentor. Fellows, like full-time faculty, will receive a one-year contract for the next year pending satisfactory work in their first year The Fellow will join the first- and second-year faculty in sessions, programs and activities provided by The Teaching Center. Fellows and mentors will also participate in general Teaching Center activities available to all faculty members
