This round of funding will prioritize providing additional support to projects that have already received some funding from the Broadening the Bridge grant and now seek to maintain momentum toward broader goals. Above all, the project seeks to foster proposals that investigate, propose, and implement far-reaching and sustainable changes to the colleges’ curriculum, especially at the departmental or program level. Full details are available on the “How to Apply” page, which includes a link to the proposal form.
Proposals must be submitted online by Friday, April 13, 2018. Awards will be announced, and funds made available, in early May 2018.
Note that since the Broadening the Bridge grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation will end in June 2019, newly-funded collaborative curricular projects must take place over the remainder of 2018, and must be completed by May 2019.
