About Us
The Center for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning originated in 1986 as a result of a faculty committee’s deliberations. CETL has primarily served as a faculty development center, assisting faculty in their teaching skills through improved lecturing; and through administering the Institute Course/Instructor Opinion Survey (CIOS). Through generous support of several alumni classes, the Center has been able to run a number of specialized programs for junior faculty and graduate teaching assistants; and was honored with the prestigious TIAA-CREF Hesburgh Award in 1999 in large part due to this alumni support. As we enter a new century, the increased expectation for technology in education is creating new challenges for our faculty. These challenges in turn create opportunities for CETL to help Georgia Tech’s instructional quality stay at the high level that has earned it its world reputation.
