State of Kansas Applied Learning Funds still available for FY25

Colleges and departments are invited to submit proposals for the State of Kansas Applied Learning Funds. Special attention will be given to programs traditionally lacking access to paid applied learning opportunities.

What are the funding priorities?

  • Areas of greatest need: These funds are designed to level the playing field. Proposals that address areas with limited access to paid applied learning experiences will be prioritized.
  • Academic alignment: The work-based experience needs to seamlessly connect with your academic program, ensuring students are building valuable bridges between theory and practice.
  • Data-driven approach: The ability to collect data on your program’s effectiveness is crucial. This helps ensure these funds have a lasting positive impact on student success.
