Investing in student success

MizzouForward is our 10-year, $1.5 billion investment in faculty excellence, infrastructure growth and student success. As part of this historic initiative, in 2022 we dedicated more than $4 million to 53 projects that support student success, including a graduate student success center, a collaboration to 3D print organ models, and many renovations and tech upgrades across campus. 

Building on our incredible momentum, in December we announced another round of MizzouForward Student Success Enhancement Grants. Potential projects can include upgrading classrooms and labs, expanding undergraduate research opportunities, providing access to groundbreaking technology – as well as innovative initiatives to strengthen teaching and learning. 

Proposals for one-time funding (up to $100,000 per award) are due by this Friday and recipients will be notified by Monday, Feb. 19. Additional information is available through the Office of the Provost

I’m eager to see the impact of this new round of proposals and to support excellence across our community.
