Faculty Grant Program

Apply Here

The CMS PTG grants program exists to support CMS faculty & staff in their efforts to enrich and broaden the educational experience of all CMS students.

A successful ‘23-‘24 application will be:

• Student-focused
• Meaningful, substantial or rewarding for the student experience
• Consistent with CMS goals
• Fiscally responsible
• Not funded via another source

Grants are an opportunity for you to try something new, to branch out, to experiment, or expand a successful concept. We encourages faculty & staff to apply for funds to pilot new and creative initiatives. Pilot projects are eligible for an initial request and can then apply in a future grant cycle for more funding if the pilot is successful. Our goal is to fund as many different teachers, departments, and new ideas as possible.

THINGS TO REMEMBER

• The CMS PTG cannot be a recurring funding source—we can be the seed money for something new, and/or help expand a successful initiative, but if your project requires recurring funding, you will need to seek this through the regular budgetary process.
  
• CMS PTG grants do not fund furniture, uniforms, salaries, or professional development.
  
• The deadline to apply for a ‘23-‘24 grant is May 1, 2024.
  
• All grant reimbursements must be requested in the CMS PTG fiscal year in which they are awarded. For the ‘23-‘24 fiscal year, reimbursement may be requested no later than June 1, 2024.
