Improving University Teaching - July 2026 Glasgow

Dear Colleagues

A reminder that you are cordially invited to participate in the 52nd International Conference on Improving University Teaching, to be held this year in Glasgow, Scotland. Our conference theme is “Connecting Across Cultures: Collaboration, Compassion, and Creativity,” with a focus on the links that sustain teaching and learning. IUT welcomes proposals in a variety of formats — papers, posters, workshops, and roundtables. More information about theme, subthemes, and presentation formats is available on our website, https://iutconference.com, where you will also find a link for proposal submissions.

This year’s proposal submission deadline is Monday, January 26th.

The dates for IUT 2026 are July 15-17, 2026. Our in-person host is the University of Glasgow in Scotland — the fourth oldest university in the English-speaking world, with a student enrollment of almost 40,000 and a strong tradition of both research and teaching excellence. Once again, this year’s conference will be a hybrid event. We hope many participants will attend the conference in person in Glasgow, but also warmly welcome those who choose to participate remotely.

Whether you prefer to join us online or in person, we hope you will consider a submission. Please contact us at iutconference AT gmail.com with any questions.

With best wishes,

Anne Tierney
President, IUT

Jim Wilkinson
Treasurer, IUT, and President emeritus
