Funding

Grant Examples and Scope

  • Inviting a guest lecturer from outside of Dartmouth to visit a class
  • Going on a research-related site visit
  • Engaging in other activities that support the curriculum or classroom experience

Classroom Enhancement Grants should not be used to supplement travel or other expenses related to academic conferences on campus. If a visiting faculty member is on campus for such a conference, Classroom Enhancement Grants may be used for an additional night's stay in Hanover in order to meet with students in classes.

The Center reviews such grant requests on a rolling basis, and awards (which may be less than the amount requested) depend on the impact of the speaker in advancing public policy and social science instruction in the class as well as the availability of funds.
