Curriculum Innovation Program

CTE's Curriculum Innovation Program is an opportunity for a team of faculty from a department to collaborate on transforming a key part of their curriculum to improve student learning and success. Selected teams will be awarded two-year grants totaling $10,000; will receive consultation, guidance and support from CTE throughout the duration of the project; and will join a community of colleagues from other departments for idea exchange and problem solving.  Application details can be found here.
