Faculty who participate in theannual Sustainability Course Development Institute professional development workshop are eligible to apply for funding to support revising curriculum to integrate sustainability. The fund is still relatively new so new content has not yet been developed. To date, we have only delivered the Sustainability Course Development Institute twice; as it continues to be offered, we anticipate acceleration of this curriculum revision work.

Faculty who have taken a Sustainability Course Development Institute who wish to integrate sustainability into existing curriculum can apply for grant up to $1,000. In addition, this funding can be applied for in connection with funding from the university's Curriculum Innovation Fund and the Experiential Learning Fund.
