Grant Summary

$14,902 over 6 months to strengthen student learning by sharing disciplinary expertise across campuses, focusing especially on developing a network of expertise on which students can draw on for undergraduate research projects. As part of this work, the Council will consider how this way of working affects faculty work and reward structures, and will build in ways of assessing student learning and the overall success of the project. The planning process will involve working meetings with - and surveys of - faculty, provosts / deans, and presidents of participating colleges, all aimed at the development of an implementation proposal
