A brief description of the program(s), including positive outcomes during the previous three years:
The Center for Environmental Justice and Sustainability’s (CEJS) annual fellowship program supports student and faculty scholarship in environmental justice and sustainability. This fellowship program is available to support scholarly research by faculty in all disciplines on topics related to environmental justice or sustainability. Proposals are encouraged in all types of scholarship, and projects that include collaboration across disciplines or schools/colleges are highly encouraged. The program provides support for new projects, for extending previous work, or for moving projects in a new direction. CEJS faculty fellows are expected to produce a tangible scholarly product, such as a grant proposal, journal article, peer-reviewed artistic presentation, a publishable project as a result of their participation in this program, incorporation of sustainability into existing courses, or the development of new courses.
Example:
CEJS Fellow Dr. Trileigh Tucker created the “Environmental Justice Teaching Resources” (EJTR) inventory which can be used by faculty at SU or elsewhere to incorporate EJ into their course offerings.
A brief description of the incentives that faculty members who participate in the program(s) receive:
Each Fellowship Award is one-course release or a stipend during the academic year.
