Invest in Your Growth as a Teacher
The Teaching Center provides faculty travel grants to support attendance at conferences, workshops, or events focused on college-level teaching and student learning. These grants reflect our commitment to the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) and to faculty development rooted in impact, reflection, and community.
A call for applications is issue each fall and spring semester. Grants are reviewed and awarded by the Teaching Center Advisory Board (TCAB).
