Faculty Scholarship Funding Opportunities

Professional Presentation: Scholarships in this category are designated for faculty members that have a paper, presentation, or artistic work accepted at a professional meeting or conference. To access the application, please click here.

Course/Curriculum Development: Scholarships in this category are awarded specifically for the redesign of an existing course/curriculum, or the development of a new course/curriculum proposal for which the individual applying is directly responsible. Scholarships are awarded based on the appropriateness of an activity such as a seminar, workshop, or conference that provides content, materials and/or information related directly to specific course/curriculum development. Funding is not intended for travel to annual or general-purpose meetings. Travel to specific meetings with a narrowly defined pedagogical or curricular focus or additional expenses incurred during attendance at relevant pre- or post-convention workshops may be covered by these funds.

Instructional Improvement: Scholarships in this category are designated specifically for those activities, materials, or equipment that focus on the development of a faculty member’s skills, teaching methods, and/or techniques and strategies for the improvement of instructional effectiveness in the classroom. These grants do not usually fund travel to annual or general-purpose meetings unless directly linked to pedagogical outcomes. They can fund travel to special or one-of-a-kind meetings that have a narrowly defined pedagogical or curricular focus. They may also fund extra expenses incurred by faculty who wish to attend particularly relevant pre-convention or post-convention workshops. To access the application, please click here.
