Event Date

Presented by: Davis Humanities Institute

The First-Year Seminar program invites proposals for courses co-taught by (current and former) Mellon Public Scholars and their faculty mentors in Spring 2021. Importantly, we seek proposals with extensive community input in the development and delivery of the seminar. 

All proposals will be considered for the First-Year Seminar program; however, those who submit a “statement of collaboration” will be eligible for a supplemental $500 grant for their community partners. These additional funds are available as part of a research program to improve practices of reciprocity in community-engaged research at UC Davis. A review committee representing the Mellon Public Scholars Program, the First-Year Seminar Program, and Public Scholarship and Engagement will select five proposals to receive the supplemental grant and individualized consultation.
