Scholar in Residence Program

Purpose of Program

The Faculty Scholar-in-Residence Program at the Center for Excellence in Learning and Teaching (CELT) is to promote scholarly inquiry in the areas of best practices for college learning and teaching and for undergraduate student retention.  Each academic year one faculty member will be selected from the University of Bridgeport faculty community; full-time and adjunct faculty members are eligible.  The selected faculty member will be supported with one course release ($3,000) during the fall or spring semester to complete his/her research; research is to be completed by the end of the academic year.
