The Academic Community Engagement (ACE) Fellows program promotes and sustains community-engaged teaching, research, and scholarship through a cohort-based program.

ACE Fellows develop community-based projects congruent with their research, scholarship, and/or teaching interests. They may choose to start a new project or develop existing work. Fellows receive a $1,000 award each year of the two-year fellowship, which can be used toward project-related expenses, travel costs, honoraria for speakers and panelists, etc.

Apply

Interested faculty must submit an application and CV detailing the anticipated impact of a proposed ACE project and any prior experience with community-engaged learning.

Permission to pursue a two-year commitment to the ACE Fellowship must be granted by the applicant’s Department Chair and/or Dean. Applications will be reviewed by a committee comprised of previous ACE Fellows and the Director of Community Partnerships and Experiential Learning in the Office of Civic and Community Engagement.

If you have questions about the ACE Fellows program, please contact Allison Walker, Director of Community Partnerships & Experiential Learning.
