"The Transform Mid-Atlantic Faculty Development Mini-Grant program supports development of member faculty in order to enhance student learning and engagement. Each year, TMA awards up to $10,000 in total to faculty from throughout the region who initiate new or existing programs that develop faculty's knowledge and skills related to civic and community engagement, service-learning, community-based learning and research, and collaborative intercampus and community-based partnership."
Fundable programs include workshops, institutes, and other faculty development opportunities that support community-engaged learning. Past funded projects have included annual conferences on teaching and scholarship, engaged scholarship workshop series, and institutes focused on high-impact practices in teaching and learning.
Preference will be given to team initiatives, especially inter-institutional and inter-disciplinary collaborations. Applicants should review the grant specifications document available on the Transform Mid-Atlantic website before applying.
