Classroom Enhancement Grant

About the Grant

Faculty may apply for grants throughout the academic year for research-based activities or invited classroom guests that support efforts to enrich the teaching experience with a focus on ethics, broadly construed.  These grants may be used to invite a guest lecturer from outside Dartmouth to a class, go on a research-related field trip, or engage in other activities that support the curriculum or classroom experience.  For more information about Dartmouth's current travel guidelines, visit:  https://news.dartmouth.edu/covid-19/travel-and-visitors. 

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. Awards typically range from $500-$1000, with an honorarium limit up to $500 per person and any additional funds used for travel or other costs. Honorariums for Zoom classroom visits are permissible. Faculty may submit requests totaling up to $3500 per fiscal year and are encouraged to do so to advance their teaching, additional requests may be considered based on the availability of funds.
