UC Fellowship Program for Inclusive Engagement

To enhance our efforts toward understanding and promoting inclusiveness, University College has created a biennial Fellowship Program providing incentives and opportunities for UC colleagues to develop and deliver specific projects, initiatives, or research-based scholarship aimed to raise awareness, foster engagement, and/or encourage discussion regarding the college’s diversity priority areas. This opportunity is open to all University College full-time employees. To apply or view more information, click here.

Perspectives on Global Issues Workshop (from University College)

One teaching faculty from each degree-granting college will be selected to participate in an active-learning, globally-focused, inter-cultural, academic-practitioner workshop. The purpose of the workshop is to expand faculty understanding of, and engagement in, broad topical policy debates and discussions occurring in the world today, thereby providing them with an additional foundation for bringing these themes back to the campuses of KSU and extending the engagement to our students and surrounding communities.
