Support for Education Grant Writing

There are several support resources in place to assist UC Merced instructors with grants for educational programs or with some education or outreach component:

Consult with us to design educational activities that affect broader impacts aligned with your research activities.

  • Ideas for leveraging existing UC Merced education and outreach efforts

  • Connections to potential campus partners

  • Sample budgets for various types of education activities

  • Suggestions for project management and logistics support for programs

  • Contact the Division of Undergraduate Education <lsheehan@ucmerced.edu> to request a consultation

  • For institutional information, agency-specific (e.g., NSF, NIH, etc.) templates, guidance, institutional language (e.g., HSI, San Joaquin Valley, etc.), and letters of support information and language for grant support see the Office of Research and Economic Development (ORED)'s Faculty Toolkit

  • To bolster broader impact statements, we have provided a bibliography for common education research topics (e.g., active learning) as well as boilerplate language about UC Merced programs that can be copied and pasted into your grant proposals or manuscripts
