Academic Senate Lottery Fund Awards
Eligibility:
Staff and tenure-track faculty at CSUSM are eligible to apply for lottery funds.
Guidelines:
The activity funded must represent a bonafide educational experience for students, or result in the development of materials to be used with students, or lead to the development of a program or course.
Proposed activities must meet an unfulfilled need, support student education and furtherance of the CSUSM mission statement. Preference will be given to pilot projects leading to a request for external support, one-time only requests for new or replacement instructional equipment/supplies, innovative projects such as interdisciplinary instruction, mediated instructional pedagogies, or new and substantially different types of content delivery.
Normally, funds used to offset faculty personal service contracts and/or travel should not exceed 20% of the total proposed budget. In those cases where funds requested do exceed this amount, a compelling justification must be part of the formal proposal.
See the current call for specific guidelines for the current award process.
How to apply:
The call for proposals and application form is distributed by the Academic Senate Office late in the Fall semester. Applications are generally due in late January. To view the most recent call and application, go to the Academic Senate website.
