Competitive Teaching and Learning Grants

Our competitive grants are the most rigorous and require prerequisite participation in one or more of our Faculty Development programs. The selection processes are competitive and the grants require a number of deliverables, as well as a significant commitment of time from faculty. Currently, we offer a Challenge Grant, Course Redesign Grant and SoTL Grant.

Congratulations to our 2018 Challenge Grant recipients!
