Description:

The purpose of the program is to support the development or transformation of classes and programs to help students develop novel, STEM-based inventions and gain the necessary entrepreneurial skills needed to bring these ideas to market. Grants are intended to strengthen existing curricular programs and/or building new courses and programs that engage student teams in developing and pursuing scalable solutions to real-world needs through Innovation and Entrepreneurship (I&E).

The Spring 2021 Sustainable Design Faculty Grants cycle will support faculty and staff who are committed to cultivating I&E dedicated to positive social impact and environmental sustainability, and will integrate sustainable design concepts tools, and frameworks into their I&E curriculum. VentureWell is seeking proposals with innovative ideas related to the development of new courses and programs, or to strengthening existing courses and programs, that incorporate key sustainable design concepts with the end goal of developing novel inventions and technologies.
