If you are committed to providing excellent and inclusive learning experiences for all students; if you are interested in using new technologies; if you would be excited to further your professional experience through an award; and if you want to stand out as a leader in your field: we want you to apply!
Universal Design (UD) Fellows will engage in a partnership with OIT’s Universal Instructional Design Consultant to redesign a course (or substantial portion of a course) to be fully accessible according to CU’s 2015 Accessibility Policy. Under this new policy, the campus is moving toward a goal of full accessibility by fiscal year 2018, and this program has been created to support and recognize leaders across campus in this regard. UD Fellows receive a prestigious award and join a cohort of UD Fellows who collectively act as advocates for the OIT Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Accessibility program.
