Greetings from Austin, Texas!
Due to popular demand we are extending the Chautauqua short course registration at the lower rate of
$50 registration-UT Austin campus
$75 registration-field courses
The registration fee along with the additional course fee, help fund instructor honorariums, participant copy costs, course materials, refreshments and incidentals.
Please help us fill these important short courses, which serve to provide an opportunity for invited scholars to communicate new knowledge, concepts, and technologies directly to college teachers, which are then immediately beneficial to their teaching. The primary aim is to enable undergraduate teachers in the sciences to keep their teaching current.
