Reminder: Apply for FWI funds, deadline July 30

Funds are now available on a quarterly basis for projects or initiatives that support and advance the principles of Forward with Integrity.

“The response to the three previous requests for proposals highlighted the willingness of members of the McMaster community to reimagine the University’s current practices,” said McMaster President Patrick Deane. “We want to continue to stimulate and support that kind of engagement and innovation. I invite the McMaster community to be imaginative in proposing new ways to approach and enhance our academic mission.”

This request for proposals is open to all faculty, staff and students at McMaster and encourages submissions that are consistent with the goals and principles outlined in the President’s letter, Forward with Integrity, and the advisory group paper, The Emerging Landscape.

Submissions could include proposals that experiment with an idea that has the potential to enhance the University or removes barriers that limit institutional transformation.

The deadline is July 30. Learn more.
