Recognizing the benefits of such collaboration, but also well aware that interdisciplinary work poses real challenges, the NYU Center for the Humanities invites interested pairs of faculty members to apply for grants of $5,000 to support the development of team-taught, interdisciplinary undergraduate courses and associated expenses.
Donor Name: NYU Center for the Humanities
State: New York
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline (mm/dd/yyyy): 04/17/2022
Grant Size: $5,000
Details:
Team teaching is an approach that models for students the benefits of bringing different analytical and theoretical frameworks and pedagogical styles to bear on a topic. For faculty, team-teaching can be highly rewarding intellectually, often leading to further interdisciplinary work and thus deepening and expanding each instructor’s knowledge and pedagogical tools.
The aim is to add new offerings to NYU’s existing curricula for students from across NYU’s departments, and to foster faculty cooperation in and out of the classroom.
Eligibility Criteria
Two faculty members who are appointed in different departments/ schools and work in different disciplines should apply jointly. At least one applicant must be on a continuing appointment and one must be engaged primarily in a humanities discipline.
