CUNY-IIE invites education faculty to participate in its Faculty Fellows Program during the Fall 2025 semester, which is focused on redesigning existing syllabi with a focus on immigration and education.
This program aims to equip tenured and tenure-track faculty from any institution of higher education in New York State––specifically those within schools of education who teach in-service or pre-service educators––with resources and scholarship that can support them in teaching about the intersections between immigration and education in their classes.
Interested applicants should fill out this short Google form by Friday, August 15th.
