The CU Boulder Public and Community-Engaged Scholarship Grants Committee is composed of faculty and staff from multiple academic disciplines.
The committee meets each spring to review the Tier 3 and 4 proposals and select outstanding projects that meet at least one of the following criteria:
- Respond to a direct request made by a school or community group
- Establish a long-term relationship with a group or community
- Serve a community with limited access to CU Boulder programs
- Make the work of CU Boulder’s distinguished faculty accessible to the public
- Involve CU Boulder undergraduate and graduate students in project development, implementation and or/evaluation
