A: Note that the PCF program not only provides funding, but a dedicated professional development opportunity for instructors with community-building and mentorship. It is expected that selected Fellows may work with other individuals on campus as thought-partners or collaborators (e.g. an instructor on a course who enables data collection as part of a study). However, only those who intend to participate in the professional growth opportunity provided by PCF should apply. Other supporters of the research project may be credited as part of the work, but will not be recognized or funded as a Fellow unless selected for and committed to meeting the program expectations. For individuals or teams who are looking for financial support without required program participation, we encourage looking to other UE opportunities or funding mechanisms outside of UC Berkeley.
