Teaching Communities Grants

Teaching Communities may request up to $750 to directly support the teaching community's goals and activities. The most common requests are books, modest group meals, and/or invited speakers.

Your funding request should be consistent with the size of your community. A larger grant for very small community would need to be particularly well-justified.

If your community is associated with a specific course, teaching materials used in the course should be funded by the academic unit offering the course.

Information needed to request funding

  • Specific details about the item or service, including verified costs (no estimates please)
  • A list of people who have agreed to participate in the community
  • One member who will be responsible for spending

We are not currently accepting Teaching Community Grant proposals. Please email site@psu.edu for more information.
