SAS Instructional Technology Grants Application Form - Regular Grants

in

This page will assist you in applying for an SAS Internal Grant for instructional technology.
Please note that all requests must be related to course work.

You've indicated that this will be a Regular Grant project (not a Quick Grant). You should use this form if:

  • Your project require larger amounts of staff support time (greater than 50 hours) or significant cash expense ($1,000 to $10,000). In general, the larger the proposal, the higher the number of students that would benefit from the project and the higher the standards for feasibility, project management, educational impact, and strategic value for the School as a whole.
  • Examples: Web projects that require programming or database integration; complex or high volume Multi-Media projects; expensive software or other complex customizations in computer labs; videoconference support or distributed learning support for an entire term; equipment or software purchases, including that which may be shared among projects; other highly innovative pilot projects.

Proposals are accepted until mid March for projects to be implemented in the Summer or Fall semesters, and until mid October for projects to be implemented in the Spring semester. See the top of the main SAS Instructional Technology Grants page (here) for exact deadlines.
