Past Educational Innovation Grant Recipients
Tier 3 (Catalyst Grants)
Tier 3 grants provide funding to catalyze and support more substantial instructor-initiated course interventions and program development projects that advance teaching practices, curriculum, and pedagogical research and inspire new ways of engaging students in innovative and equitable instruction. By acting as a catalyst for change, these grants foster implementation, expansion, and assessment of innovative teaching and curricular approaches with the potential for large-scale impacts on students, instructors, and departmental culture

Tier 4–Track 1 (Planning Grants)
Track 1 planning grants are intended to support teams of instructors in developing a data-informed and evidence-based plan for programmatic action. Such efforts may result in advancing efforts to apply for a Track 2 implementation grant, although this is not a required outcome of the Track 1 awards.
