<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">The Harold Schnitzer Family Program in Judaic Studies is pleased to announce Curriculum Enrichment Grants to support the new JDST
curriculum. Funded by the program to help revitalize our classroom offerings, these grants provide a $5,000 stipend to support course development. Recipients must agree to teach the newly designed course twice over a three–year period. The awards will go to
highly creative proposals that have the potential to draw students into the program and provide context and depth for core JDST courses. Winners will receive half of the stipend up front and the remaining funds upon the initial completion of the course. Up
to four such awards will be given.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Please submit a one-page description of the course noting how it intersects with the JDST curriculum along with a detailed syllabus
in one of the following three areas. Since these are topics courses, applicants are encouraged to compose the syllabus according to their respective fields of expertise and emphasize their current research. On a separate page, applicants should describe how
the course would be designed for both face-to-face learning and remote delivery.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
