Research Awards and Grants Programs Scholarship of Engagement Award This award honors a tenured associate or full professor whose scholarship has made significant contributions toward identifying or addressing issues of public concern and whose work advances civic engagement through scholarship and service-learning opportunities for students. Engaged scholarship enriches knowledge, addresses critical social issues and benefits communities. Service-learning projects provide academically-based activities that connect student learning to outreach and engagement in a community context. At “engaged institutions,” faculty and students are involved in teaching, research and service in an integrated way. The Scholarship of Engagement Award provides the honoree with a $5,000 faculty development grant to sustain or enhance current outreach projects or to develop new ones.
