STF funding is a great way for students to bring more technology to the School of Social Work! Want more laptops for checkout? A camera for filming practice client sessions? Technology for skyping? See below.
My name is Alton Lu. I am the Coordinator for the Student Technology Fee Committee on campus.
We recently opened up our funding round for proposals. The STF Committee has over $5 million dollars available in grants to fund technology projects on campus for student use and benefit. Deadline for proposals is currently on January 22nd, but they are relatively simple to submit.
Proposals for funds originate from both students and faculty. STF has funded proposals such as:
There are very little restrictions on what proposals are considered by STF. The funds available are meant to supplement technology needs of UW Students.
If you see some place in your department where additional technology can impact a student’s educational experience, research opportunities that expand the capabilities of students, or student groups that would really benefit from technology funding, please consider forwarding this information or considering a proposal yourself.
Please visit uwstf.org if you are interested or are looking for more information. I can answer any questions you might have. I believed that this might be something you or your department would be interested in.
