Faculty Development Grants Skip to primary navigation Faculty development grants are intended to strengthen the quality of teaching at UCA. The Center for Excellence in Teaching and Academic Leadership administers the awarding of competitive professional development grants, which are reviewed by the Faculty Development Committee five times per year.
Applications for consideration will include explanatory details pertaining to the professional development activity, an itemized budget, and recommendations from the applicant’s chair and dean. For the 2026-2027 academic year, there is $20,000 available for faculty development grants, divided across five deadlines: Grants will typically be funded up to $500 per applicant .
The Farris Faculty Development Grant was established in 2006 when former UCA President Jeff Farris and his wife Patsy endowed a $25,000 fund designated for faculty development. Guidelines for this grant are the same as those for regular faculty development grants, except that funds can roll over into the next fiscal year and are reserved for activities scheduled during summer months.
This program is provided to support faculty development activities related to enhancing teaching effectiveness and/or developing curriculum. Acceptable activities or meetings may focus on instructional design, content, or pedagogy. The activity should be justified by explaining how it will improve the applicant’s teaching.
In addition to funding off-campus activities, FDG money is also used to fund relevant online professional development in teaching as well as bring speakers to campus to engage in professional development for a group of faculty. For specific details on eligible activities, please review the Faculty Development Grant Guidelines .
