Do you have a new teaching strategy you want to pilot? Are you designing a rigorous pedagogical research study but lack the funding to get started?
MOBTS wants to fund your idea.
We are accepting applications for our brand new Teaching Innovation & Pedagogical Research Mini-Grants. We are looking for projects that facilitate vibrant and experiential learning experiences or advance the scholarship of teaching and learning in management education.
