Grants and Funds

The Program in Applied Ethics has created several types of funds and grants which further the goals of the program:

Course Development Grants

Guest Speaker Funds
. . . can be used to pay honoraria for guest speakers in courses and in student and faculty gatherings on a topic related to ethics.

Special Opportunity Funds
. . . support faculty development in ethics by contributing funds for attendance at off-campus workshops, conferences and other activities.

Faculty-Student Dialogue Grants
. . . finance faculty-student inquiry groups which will meet for an informal but focused study of some ethical issue. These grants provide honoraria for guest speakers and cover over expenses.

Student Activities Funds
. . . can be used to promote student-organized initiatives to address ethical issues.
