Successful applicants will be expected to come to the workshop with an idea for an engaged scholarship project, or a research project about the scholarship of engagement, in mind. These projects will be discussed in the context of what is presented during the workshop. Participants are expected to attend all sessions and participate fully in activities of the program.
