Engaged Research Grants incentivize undergraduate participation in faculty- and staff-led research that strengthens the well-being of communities. Community-engaged research occurs in collaboration with a community partner who is involved throughout the research process. It also
  • addresses a specific need, problem or common concern of that partner
  • includes documented critical reflection for undergraduates involved in the research

The Engaged Research Grants are new in 2020. They combine what was previously known as the Faculty Research Grants on Engagement and the Engaged Undergraduate Research Grants. For more information, see the Engaged Research Grants (right click to open in new tab) page on the Engaged Cornell website.

Contact engagedcornell@cornell.edu if you have any questions.








FACULTY/STAFF TEAM COMPOSITION

*Note: Engaged College Initiative Eligibility

This fall, OEI launched an engaged college initiative – which includes college block grants – with the Cornell SC Johnson College of Business and College of Human Ecology. Faculty and staff from these colleges should apply for funding directly through their college, but are still invited to collaborate with OEI and participate in OEI programs. Contact the community-engaged learning coordinators to learn about college-specific opportunities and when they’ll be available:

  • Kristen Elmore, College of Human Ecology

  • Candace Maxian, SC Johnson College of Business

If you are from a college listed above and are co-leading a cross-college project, email Amanda Wittman to discuss your application.
