New funding opportunities for departments: the Sustainability Integration in the Curriculum Grant

The Teaching Innovation Incubator is excited to announce its support of a new pilot funding program by the Sustainability Office. This program, the Sustainability Integration in the Curriculum (SIC) Grant is a new funding program for academic departments to deepen integration of sustainability within any undergrad program of study.

The new Sustainability Integration in Curriculum (SIC) grants are intended to catalyze efforts that draw connections between major sustainability challenges and the skills, experiences, and competencies students can leverage through their discipline to support a more sustainable future.

The grants can be for up to $7,500 each and can cover a wide range of activities that a department could implement to further their sustainability integration efforts, including research, workshops, supplies and materials, student incentives, and more. Applications are due by November 1 and will be reviewed by an interdisciplinary team of faculty and educational developers.
