Curricular and Pedagogical Innovation Grants

These grants are designed to help faculty members enhance the quality of education at Trinity by taking advantage of new technologies, new teaching methods, and new approaches to knowledge attainment.

We encourage submissions on behalf of individuals, departments, and programs and are particularly interested in proposals that reach across disciplinary lines or that extend out into the local community.

These funds are allocated through the Office of Academic Affairs. Award amounts will vary depending on the scope and complexity of the proposed project. Each proposal should include a brief narrative that addresses:

  • Ways in which this project will enhance student learning, including specific goals;
  • Schedule of work to be done under the grant;
  • Budget (including supplies and expenses, if any); and
  • Support of your departmental chair.

At the end of the grant period, each faculty member should submit a brief report evaluating the success of the project.

Send proposals and evaluation reports via email to AVPAA: CFD Duane Coltharp.

Course Redesign Grants

These grants are administered jointly by Academic Affairs and The Collaborative to support faculty who develop courses that emphasize innovative pedagogical techniques to enhance learning, both inside and outside the classroom.

Course-Embedded Research Grants

The Undergraduate Research in the Arts & Humanities considers proposals for $2,500 stipends from Trinity faculty members to add Course-Embedded Undergraduate Research Experiences (CUREs) to lower division courses or to create arts and humanities labs.
