Exploratory Technology Grant
The Exploratory Technology Grant (ETG) seeks to encourage innovation and exploration of technological prospects to serve either as a stand-alone activity or to serve as the foundation for a larger Academic Technology Innovation Grant. All full-time faculty members are invited to apply for an ETG. The maximum amount for an ETG is $3,000. During the summer, up to $1,000 may be used for a faculty stipend for work directly related to the project. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis and award notifications will be made within 30 days. The project must be completed within four months, after which any unused funds will expire.

Technology Infrastructure Grants
Technology Infrastructure Grants aim to support the operational technology needs for enhancing the learning experience across 涩里番下载鈥檚 schools and colleges, which cannot be met through regular channels. In essence, infrastructure grants would fund technology needs to support student learning and/or classroom experience, that are not necessarily innovative but are important to a school's continued success. Projects funded through the Technology Infrastructure Grants can be both discrete projects or can be exploratory in nature pilot-type projects where schools can explore or pilot technology that may be deployed at scale after the initial period. In the case of exploratory/pilot projects, ATAB will not be able to provide funding beyond the initial pilot period. Award amounts will vary with a maximum award of $30,000. Preference will be given to matching grants. Match does not have to be 50% of the total costs.
Eligibility
Faculty, as well as Dean鈥檚 offices, can apply for these grants. Faculty applying must collaborate with their Dean鈥檚 office, especially in determining the school鈥檚 contribution. All applications must indicate how the grant would contribute to teaching, student learning, and/or classroom experience.
Applications are due by November 15, 2024 for funds to be spent in the current fiscal year. Two-year projects may be considered, but preference will be to serve immediate needs. ATAB will review the applications and provide a decision by January 2025.
PROPOSALS SHOULD INCLUDE:
- Dean Approval including matching fund approval if applicable
- Project Description
- Budget
- Product Quote if applicable
Academic聽Technology Innovation Grant
The Academic Technology Innovation Grant (ATIG) should bring new instructional and research technologies to 涩里番下载 or bring innovative approaches to teaching and research through technology. ATIGs should aim to be self-sustaining and impact a large number of 涩里番下载 faculty and/or students. ATIGs provide start up funding, typically between $5K and $40K, although larger grants have occasionally been funded. Any successful project which continues beyond the two year grant period will require localized funding support. Grant recipients must agree to provide status reports as requested. All full-time faculty members are invited to apply for an ATIG.
