Community and Covid-inspired Faculty Scholarship: Issues and Opportunities Fellowship
The Community and Covid-inspired Faculty Scholarship: Issues and Opportunities Fellowship is sponsored by the Academic Affairs division at Montgomery College, led by Dr. Sanjay Rai, to support faculty scholarship and research opportunities. At a time of growing uncertainty associated with the COVID-19 Pandemic and ongoing social unrest driven by generations of systemic racism, the Fellowship explores the themes of social justice and MC's role in community engagement, growth, and recovery.
The Fellowship continues MC's commitment to access, equity, and excellence. The Fellowship serves as a vehicle to promote research, support the integration and transformation of knowledge through in teaching and learning continuum, and promote the application of knowledge to solve problems identified in the MC community. Chosen fellows will explore the relationship between COVID-19 and its impact and highlight the work of faculty as they bring innovation to the classroom to enhance teaching at MC as we restore, evolve, and transform into a socially just post-pandemic institution.
The Fellowship is interdisciplinary and open to faculty from all three campuses. The Fellowship is a year-long commitment (Spring 2022 and Fall 2022) and is considered a part of your workload assignment; it is open to full-time and part-time faculty. Fellows will be awarded three ESH per semester, a total of six ESH for their work and participation.
