Career support: teaching and supervision
Teaching in Higher education 1 & 2
The Centre for Teaching and Learning offers two courses on university pedagogy. They are adapted to the participants and their development in the role as university tutors, and provide knowledge of what teaching in higher education entails. The participants focus on their own subject, and the concept of a subject is central throughout the course.
If you have taken a course similar to Teaching in Higher education at another University or have equivalent knowledge, there is a possibility to validate the courses.
SUPERVISING LICENTIATE AND DOCTORAL STUDENTS
In this course, participants improve their understanding of different ways of supervising and offering third-cycle education in different subjects and scholarly traditions, of writing a thesis in different disciplines, and of research ethics and current national and local regulations.
