Applications are now being accepted for the Tri-College Collaborative Grant program.
Grants ranging from $250 to $1000 are available for faculty, staff or students at two or more Tri-College partner campuses for start-up or one-time funding. The purpose of the grant is to develop collaborative relationships between those sharing a common interest, vision and purpose within the campus communities of Concordia College, MSUM, Minnesota State Community and Technical College - Moorhead and NDSU.
The application deadline is Nov. 1, 2023. Preference will be given to projects/activities that will be substantially completed by June 30, 2024.
Tri-College Provost, Tim Flakoll, noted that past collaborative grants have ranged from startup funds for a women's lacrosse team to research on making bridges last longer.
According to Flakoll, "We are always on the lookout for innovative proposals that can build on Tri-College's impact on our campuses and metro community."
Established in 1970, Tri-College University is the partnership between Concordia College, M State, MSUM and NDSU that promotes cooperative efforts that enrich the academic environment for students, faculty and the community.
