Participants
More than 600 individuals from across campuses and colleges have participated in the Funded Awards Program.
There have been a total of 12 cohorts since the Funded Awards Program began in 2013. Over time, the program has evolved to encompass both faculty and student participants.
This has proven to be a highly successful collaborative partnership where faculty lead the projects with the commitment to incorporate the e-modules into their courses and consult with students to generate creative ideas; in turn, students offer engagement options and content development skills.
Current Projects & Participants (Cohort 12)
The 2022-2023 cohort features 55 individuals from three different campuses and the University of Nebraska Omaha.
