Coming Soon: *** This opportunity will be available soon. The next call is expected to open in August 2024. The following information is subject to change. ***

The new VentureWell fellowship is an evolution of our C&P Grants model, focusing on scalable STEM I&E solutions through the lens of environmental sustainability and inclusive innovation. This program offers professional development, immersive learning experiences, and a supportive community of leaders.

VentureWell is replacing a three-year, $30,000 program with two opportunities: the new one-year fellowship and a two-year challenge grant, totaling up to $135,000 over three years.

• Develop courses, policies, and co-curricular programs to promote research and development (R&D) translation focused around environmental sustainability and inclusive innovation.
• Receive $35,000 in funding for teams of two (one must be faculty) from U.S.-based colleges and universities.
• Create a STEM I&E ecosystem growth plan to scale interventions in partnership with university leadership and external partners.
