The Curriculum Enhancement Grant (CEG) provides faculty with technical and instructional support, time, and funds to implement projects designed to improve student learning and success at IUPUI, IUPUC, and IU Fort Wayne. In addition, the grants are offered to enhance the campus conversation about scholarly teaching, as described in the IUPUI Scholarly Teaching Taxonomy, and increase the practice of the scholarship of teaching and learning. Work on CEG projects can increase faculty competitiveness for other internal and external educational or curricular improvement grants.
The grant supports a wide range of faculty projects involving either individual course development or broader curricular development in face-to-face, online, or hybrid formats. Projects may focus on either undergraduate or graduate/professional curricula.
Examples of CEG projects include but are not restricted to those that would:
- enhance the effectiveness of courses through adapting pedagogies of engagement.
- redesign courses to provide more equitable and inclusive student learning experiences
- use technology, including virtual and augmented reality, to enhance the effectiveness of a course.
- develop innovative curricular materials or approaches.
- develop a new course or sequence of courses.
Eligibility
- Open to all IUPUI, IUPUC, and IU Fort Wayne full-time faculty (tenured, tenure track, and non-tenure track).
- Associate (part-time/adjunct) and visiting faculty may be included on proposals but may not serve as the principal investigator.
CEG Scholars' Presentations
After completing their projects, CEG scholars present the results of their work at an event open to the IUPUI community. The 2022 CEG scholars will present their work at the Scholarly Teaching Symposium. In past years, scholars have presented their work at the Scholars Teaching for Student Success event (2019) or the Curriculum Enhancement Grant Symposium (2011-2018).
