Travel Grants
Travel grants assist tenured, tenure track, and clinical continuing faculty in traveling to recognized conferences, workshops, and meetings of professional development or professional affiliations related to LMU’s teaching mission. The travel must have a clear and direct connection to the enhancement of teaching and learning by focusing on collegiate or graduate level teaching or teaching methods (not disciplinary content) or on the scholarship of teaching and learning. Travel for professional development in the use of a particular pedagogy, travel to present a paper related to the scholarship of teaching and learning at a conference focusing on college teaching, or travel to present a paper at a disciplinary conference on pedagogy at the collegiate level are examples of travel that could meet these guidelines.
Through the travel grants, the Center for Teaching Excellence supports LMU faculty in the development and sharing of their commitment to excellent and scholarly teaching by engaging in dialogue with professionals outside of the University and bringing that dialogue back to campus.
Travel grants are awarded subject to available funds and in a competitive manner. The Committee on Excellence in Teaching reviews all grant applications. Additional application deadlines may be announced if additional funds are available.
