Applications are now open for the third UMB/Costa Rica Faculty Development Institute, an immersive professional development program in Costa Rica for a select cohort of UMB faculty, post-doctoral, and staff members to globalize their courses, modules, tracks, clinical electives, or cocurricular programs.

From December 7-14, 2024, selected fellows will engage in a series of interactive workshops on topics such as learning design and assessment, strategies to globalize curricula, ethical global engagement, incorporating active learning, inclusive classroom practice, and other topics.

Participants must propose a global course, module, track, clinical elective, or co-curricular program that they will design in collaboration with skilled trainers during the workshop. Travel, lodging, and food are covered for selected Fellows by the Institute.
