Application Deadline: Class of 1957 Teaching Development Travel Grants

The Morgan Teaching and Learning Center is pleased to announce a cycle of Class of ’57 Teaching Development Travel Grants, for full-time teaching faculty (both secured and tenure-track). We are offering this opportunity only to teaching faculty because we want to prioritize those who historically have had less access to professional development funds. The primary intent of these $1,500 grants is to enable faculty to connect with external communities by attending a teaching/education-related conference or institute in the next 12 months, for purposes of professional development related to teaching and learning and/or to disseminate your own work.

Consideration will be given to level of need (i.e., prioritization of under-resourced departments and individuals), and departments will normally be expected to cover expenses that exceed $1,500. Faculty who received a grant in 2022 are not eligible for this round.

The attachment provides full details and the (brief!) application form. Applications are due by April 18. Please contact morgan-center@wpi.edu if you have any questions.
