Education innovation
Utrecht University helps its lecturers to work on the education of the future. Aside from degree programmes and refresher courses, it facilitates innovation for the lecturers themselves.
Money and means for innovative education ideas
Innovation requires time and money. Utrecht University provides in this by means of the Educatieve Middelen Pool (Dutch), the Teaching Fellowship Programme and the Utrecht Education Incentive Fund. The lecturer as a professional is at the forefront here as the initiator of the innovation.
Centre for Academic Teaching and Learning
All initiatives involving education innovation are the responsibility of the Centre for Academic Teaching and Learning (CAT) of Utrecht University. Aside from education innovation, the CAT also encourages and facilitates lecturer professionalisation and Scholarship of Teaching & Learning.
Experimenting with new forms of education
The Future Learning Spaces project is experimenting with new concepts to explore how the physical learning environment can contribute to Utrecht's educational vision. Take a look at the website of Future Learning Spaces for an extensive overview.
