The Community-Engaged Learning Designation Program program seeks proposals to develop new and modified community-engaged learning courses, Engaged Department/program designations, and civic faculty fellows. Funding is awarded to offset the cost or time that it takes to implement your ideas and projects! Existing course reviews also occur. The Community-Engaged Learning Designation Program has several categories:

  • Individual Course Designation – up to $1,000

    Community-engaged learning course designation offers funding directly to full-time and adjunct faculty to help them integrate community-engaged learning class pedagogy in their class. Integrate service into course curriculum and work with community partners to engage students outside of the classroom through service.

  • Existing Designated Course Review

    Courses that are designated undergo a formal review periodically. Faculty submit their syllabus and supplemental material for review. Funding is provided based on availability.

  • Civic Faculty Fellows – up to $2,000

    Faculty Fellows is a distinction for civic minded faculty members who strive to promote high-impact practice (such as community-engaged learning), boost department efforts to become more engaged and/or increase community engagement efforts across the college. Stipends are available to support projects!

  • Engaged Department Designation – up to $5,000

    Department Designation takes course designation to the next level by helping the department as a whole increase their civic engagement efforts. Funding is available for resources, professional development, department retreats to facilitate action plans and more.

The Engaged Learning Office is here to support your community-based work. We will work with you to designate your class as a community-engaged learning course, help you form community partnerships through the Thayne Center, brainstorm critical reflection prompts, anything that will engage your students and colleagues in exciting and experiential ways. We also offer a number of professional development opportunities so that you can stay current in the community-engaged learning field.
