Support for Intentional and Engaged Learning

For the 2023-2024 Academic Year:

The Office for Undergraduate Studies has allocated all funding for Intentional Learning Grants. We appreciate the many requests for funding innovative and experiential opportunities this academic year and know that our students, faculty, and staff benefit from these experiences. We will update this website if unexhausted or additional funds become available this semester.

These funds are allocated to support Intentional Learning implementation, support faculty, student, and staff activity directly related to intentional, integrative, engaged teaching/learning and cannot be used for other purposes. Please see below for opportunities to enhance the teaching/learning environment for our students/faculty.

1. Intentional Learning Activities
These grants provide support to a faculty or staff member for academic and co-curricular activities connected to the implementation of the Intentional Learning goals (effective communication; practice civic engagement; solve complex problems; clarify and act on purpose and values; and synthesis). Applications are accepted throughout the academic year.

2. Intentional Learning – Non-Conference Travel
In a few instances, faculty or staff may request funds to support student travel for reasons other than presenting at a professional conference. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis.

3. Intentional Learning – Conference Travel
These grants are designated to support student travel to conferences for general attendance as well as conference presentations. Funds will support undergraduate students whose work explicitly connects with Intentional Learning Plan learning outcomes.
