Community Scholar in Residence/Community Resident in Action Awards


Community Scholar in Residence 

The UNP Community Scholar in Residence is a $12,240 award given to a full-time, tenure or non-tenure track, faculty member of the University of Utah over TWO academic years ($6,120/year). A request for proposals is issued every two years. This award serves as a catalyst for University of Utah faculty involved in public scholarship to integrate research, teaching, and engagement through UNP campus-community partnerships. In addition, it enables the University of Utah to better respond to west side, community-identified issues, while increasing the visibility of faculty members engaged in community partnerships, and providing greater voice to historically underrepresented neighborhoods.
