University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
Office of Public Engagement
Public Engagement Grant Program
Each year the Office of Public Engagement conducts a grant program that seeks proposals from faculty, students, and staff to fund community-related projects, scholarly work, creative endeavors, course development and other activities within the broad framework of public engagement. Public engagement activities supported by campus resources are most effective when they are closely tied to the other missions of the university, namely research, teaching and economic development. The Public Engagement Grant Program supports proposals that contribute to these other missions of the university.
