Overview
Overview

Community-engaged teaching and research are powerful counterparts in an engaged scholar’s portfolio. We offer two fellowship programs: Faculty Fellows in Engaged Learning and Faculty Fellows in Engaged Scholarship.

Fellows come from all over the university, bringing their particular passions and living out the public purpose of their discipline through teaching and researching in, with and for community.

In these yearlong fellowships, Fellows will …

  • become part of a small, dynamic group of academics with a public purpose
  • meet monthly to discuss readings, share projects and workshop challenges
  • join a vibrant network of publicly-engaged academics who learn from and collaborate with each other on issues of common interest

Faculty Fellows in Engaged Learning

Students learn best when they get outside the classroom and grapple with the real-world issues they’re studying. But this kind of teaching can be a challenge. How do you prepare students to go beyond their comfort zones? How do you build partnerships that work well for everyone? What does it mean to shift your teaching practices to incorporate the values, skills and knowledges of community engagement in ways that enhance academic rigor? As a Faculty Fellow in Engaged Learning, you’ll discover tools, techniques and resources to answer these questions and more.

In addition to what’s listed above, in this yearlong fellowship, Fellows will…

  • dive deep into the theory and practice of engaged learning, reading key texts on important issues like critical reflection, partnership development and transformative learning
  • help transform what it means to teach at Cornell
Faculty Fellows in Engaged Scholarship
Faculty Fellows in Engaged Scholarship

While there’s an increasing recognition in the academy of its scholarly products, practitioners of community-engaged research and teaching often find that it’s hard to translate their many contributions in advancing scholarship for the public good into publication. Also, many engaged scholars seek ways to share the benefits of their collaborations beyond academic publication — through testimony, websites, pamphlets, manuals, exhibits, performances, public datasets, op-eds, podcasts, built works and other kinds of public products.

This fellowship is devoted to the production of significant publications of engaged scholarship. Fellows are expected to enter the program with a project and a mentor (who is encouraged to also apply as a Fellow!). Through a combination of monthly meetings, tailored mentorship and individual consultations, Fellows emerge with a product under review, or in publication or production.

In addition to what’s listed above, in this yearlong fellowship, Fellows will…

  • collaboratively explore theories and practices of community-engaged scholarship
  • give rigorous attention to the ethics and practices of sharing and co-creating public knowledge
  • help transform what it means to be a productive scholar  at Cornell
