Inclusive Excellence Research Grant
Higher education is only successful if it is inclusive for all members of the human race. Georgia College promotes an inclusive campus that does not discriminate on the basis of race, genetic information, color, sex, sexual orientation, religion, national origin, age, disability, veteran status or any other irrelevant non-bona fide qualification in the administration of educational and employment programs, or any other activity administered by the university. Inclusive excellence means that the institution recognizes the importance of the diversity of the faculty, staff, and student body and identifies the need to make key changes to achieve this goal. As a growing body of scholar practitioners at Georgia College, it is imperative that we understand and concern ourselves with how inclusive approaches support, and how exclusive activities harm, the very students and community we intend to serve.
Grant Amount: Up to $4,000.00
Grant Purpose
The purpose of this grant program is to provide funding for Georgia College faculty to conduct research on topics regarding inclusive excellence in the discipline and beyond. Faculty can address inclusive excellence in a variety of ways including: examining underserved populations; researching the effect of educational, economic, health, and environmental disparities; analyzing public policies and their impact on the social world; investigating historical events; evaluation of effective and inclusive teaching; discovering the roles specific learning outcomes includes or excludes our learners; identifying the impact the use of technology has on certain populations; and recognizing the student's agency in successfully matriculating through the coursework.
