Subject: Quality of Life Grant Call for Proposals: Due December 14th
Date: November 1, 2018 at 11:12:42 AM EDT
Dear School of Science Students,
The School of Science is now seeking proposals for the School of Science Quality of Life (SQoL) grant program designed to build community within the School, promote inclusiveness for students, staff, and faculty of diverse identities, backgrounds, and abilities, and support the physical, emotional, and intellectual well-being of our community members. The program’s goals are to:
• Provide faculty, staff and students opportunities to interact and socialize outside of the current research driven seminar series and other department-based events.
• Integrate academic and social aspects of life within the School.
• Improve communications and outreach.
• Build collaborations and connections with other community groups on campus.
The SQoL program encourages projects that have wide appeal among School community members, but also considers proposals that focus on specific groups if they cut across existing departmental and programmatic lines. Projects need not be ambitious in scope, so long as they encourage positive connections within the community. The Selection Committee will consider proposals of all sizes, but generally caps projects at $3K per year. In addition, proposals that have matching funds from other sources will be viewed favorably by the selection committee.
The deadline for submitting proposals for spring funding is December 14th. If you are interested in learning more about the program or submitting a proposal, additional information appears in the attached document and online at http://sciencem.it/sos_sql. You can also send an email to scienceqol at mit.edu<mailto:scienceqol at mit.edu> or call Connie Winner at 617-253-8900.
Best,
Heather Williams
Heather Williams, Assistant Dean, MIT School of Science, 6-131, 617-253-8904
