The PhD Students Teaching Academy Program consists of four modules over two semesters: Foundation of Teaching at UAEU, Student-Centered Course Design, Instructional Material Development and Pedagogical Practice, and Apprenticeship and Teaching Practicum. Each module consists of five two-hour sessions except the last module which is a full semester apprenticeship.
