STINTs program Teaching Sabbatical
By giving Swedish researchers and university lecturers, who are passionate about education, international experiences relevant to their teaching rather than their research roles, STINT wants to contribute to educational renewal and the creation of new networks.
Application are now open, deadline for applying to be nominated is 31/8 and should be sent to cathrine.gladh@miun.se
Nominations to the programme must be submitted by the vice-chancellor of the Swedish higher education institution (HEI); lecturers cannot apply directly to this programme. The experiences of participating lecturers should lead to change and renewal at Swedish departments and HEIs. Great emphasis is therefore placed on the involvement of HEI leaderships. Nominees must hold a doctorate degree (or equivalent), and must be employed by and well established at a Swedish HEI. Fellows must take a full leave of absence during their stay abroad. The exact amounts of the awarded fellowships and any grants for accompanying partners/dependants are determined by STINT.
