Congratulations to our staff who recently graduated with postgraduate certificates and diplomas in Teaching and Learning in Higher Education from UCC's Centre for the integration of Research, Teaching & Learning (CIRTL).

These staff were among 68 new graduates of the Postgraduate Certificate and 15 new graduates of the Postgraduate Diploma in Teaching and Learning in Higher Education of the 2021-2022 academic year at a Parchment Ceremony in the Aula Maxima on 25 November. 

Graduating staff from the College of Science, Engineering and Food Science are listed below:

These graduates are reflective of the broad community working in Higher Education that supports student learning, including academic, research and professional services staff. Their commitment to professional development and modelling this learning in practice contributes to creating a university culture which values teaching, learning and the broader student experience, and works to ensure the success of our students, whatever future path they wish to follow. This work has never been more relevant or important as we prepare students for a world where career paths are undefined, and we work collectively respond to global challenges such as migration and climate change.

The success of the CIRTL programmes reaffirms the commitment of UCC staff to professionalising their teaching, to enhancing the student learning experience, and to contributing to a vibrant, scholarly community committed to the integration of research, teaching and learning.
