Academic Challenge Funding

Faculty/Student Academic Challenge Funding

The Academic Challenge Funding program is designed to raise the College profile in scholarship, more specifically faculty-student collaboration.  This could be in the form of special curricular opportunities that will be available for those who wish to challenge themselves to new academic levels such as high-impact pedagogy, enhanced curricular and extra-curricular models, cross- and multi-disciplinary, self-directed, problem-based learning which could include “specialized” research, and other scholarly research.  

To apply, the faculty sponsor, along with his/her student(s), should submit the following application to the Office of the Provost at least thirty (30) days prior to the start date.  The submission will be reviewed and if approved, the applicant(s) will be notified in writing. 

Funding cannot be rolled into the next academic year, therefore the funding for this year needs to be spent by May 31.

Please complete and sign the application form and submit to the Office of the Provost.  Be sure to include a signed Travel Authorization form if applicable.
