The Office of the Provost is pleased to announce a call for applications to the Program Incubator for those interested in proposing a new program or significantly revitalized an existing program. Applications for programs with an intended fall 2019 launch are being accepted Thursday, March 1, through Monday, April 2. Applications for programs with a later launch are accepted on a rolling basis.
The Program Incubator is intended to:
- Expand the university’s portfolio of high-demand graduate programs, especially interdisciplinary programs
- Provide an incentive for curricular experimentation
- Renew or re-invigorate existing master’s programs ripe for innovation and expansion and
- Identify new and emerging markets for graduate programming.
The Incubator provides accepted programs access to start-up funds, proposal development coordination and revenue sharing.
Applications require a dean-approved concept paper and can be submitted online. Visit the Program Incubator site for more information or contact Dr. Carrianne Hayslett, associate dean of the Graduate School and Director of the New Program Incubator, at carrianne.hayslett@mu.edu or (414) 288-0252.
