Faculty Development Course Reassignment Grants are designed to fund faculty re-assignment from a teaching assignment to work on professional development activities that will result in their learning new areas or skills to enhance their scholarship or pedagogy, and sharing this new knowledge locally with colleagues. That is, in contrast to most other internal grant opportunities, these grants are intended to fund projects with substantial promise to enhance recipients’ ability to expand their competencies as scholars, instructors, and mentors.
