Grants are an important source of funding for many research projects. We’re proud to be able to offer you a number of grant opportunities for your community-engaged research.
Dissemination grants
If you are a full-time IU Indianapolis faculty member who has been invited to a conference to present on a topic related to civic and community engagement in higher education, we invite you to apply for a dissemination grant.
These grants range from $250 to $750 and can be used to cover registration, travel, and other expenses related to the presentation.
