Collaborative grant funds available

SHARE

In an effort to promote new collaborative initiatives, Tri-College University will offer one-time, start-up grant funds for faculty, staff and students. The grant program is intended to develop collaborative relationships between people in our campus communities who share a common interest and vision.

“The grant program is in its third year and we have seen successful collaborations between partnering campuses, faculty and students,” said Tim Flakoll, Tri-College University provost.

Projects funded in the past two years have included campus collaborations in forming a women’s collegiate lacrosse club, design of an electronics lab manual for physics and engineering students, and exploring emerging technologies for classroom instruction.

Interested faculty, staff and students at each campus are encouraged to submit a grant application detailing their project, the need that it fills, level of collaboration and participation between campuses, expected outcomes and level of funding they are seeking. Grants awarded will range from $250 - $1,000. Availability and level of awards are subject to the availability of funds at the Tri-College University. Matching funds are not required for eligibility.

Applications are available at www.tri-college.org or by calling Sonia Mayo Hohnadel, Tri-College University communications coordinator, 1-8170. The application deadline is April 16.
