ERM Apprentice Faculty Grant – Accepting Applications, February 19, 2024

I am pleased to report that we are accepting applications for the ASEE ERM Apprentice Faculty Grant (AFG) Program! Please read below and consider applying yourself or passing on to someone you think should apply.

Please refer to the following webpage, which also includes a link to the application form: https://erm.asee.org/awards/afg/

The Apprentice Faculty Grant (AFG) Program encourages and honors promising emerging engineering education scholars who have the potential for substantial contributions to the community.

In conjunction with the 2024 ASEE Annual Conference, the AFG program will grant up to four awards to emerging engineering education scholars, which may include: senior graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, junior faculty, staff members, or senior ranking faculty who meet the criteria of an emerging engineering education scholar (refer to the website below for details). Each award will include: 1) connection with a mentor who is a senior scholar in the engineering education community at the ASEE conference, and 2) $500 to support conference travel expenses. AFG recipients are expected to attend the full duration of the annual ASEE conference, including conference sessions in the ERM division, the ERM Annual Community Celebration and Awards Reception (ticket included), and a meet-and-greet with the other AFG recipients and mentors. We also highly encourage AFG recipients to attend at least one workshop.

If you have any questions please contact Aaron Johnson at aaronwj@umich.edu.
