Overview
The Provost’s Office General Education Course Enhancement Grant Competition is designed to promote the ongoing enhancement of UConn’s General Education curriculum. Each year we seek proposals for interesting or innovative revised or new general education courses.
2022-23 Competition Details (ON HOLD)
Please note that plans for an AY 22-23 competition are currently on hold pending the final implementation approval of the new Common Curriculum, which is anticipated in November. At this time, program faculty and staff are determining the feasibility of running a competition in the late Fall or early Spring semester once the new curriculum is set, but a final determination has not yet been made.
Please watch this space and the Daily Digest for updates on a possible competition or competitions.
2022-23 SUBMISSION DEADLINE: TBD (ON HOLD)

Faculty who wish to submit a proposal to the competition are highly encouraged to attend an information session. Please watch this space for scheduled sessions once the new curriculum has been set.
