Faculty members selected to take part in the program are provided salary support of $100,000 in order to protect at least 50 percent of their time for program activities. Scholars must be have served five or more years as a faculty member, preferably at the sponsoring school, and be nominated by the dean of their school.
Scholars will participate in a national educational network, the annual Macy Faculty Scholars meeting, and have access to other Macy-funded activities.
Applications must be completed online at www.macyfoundation.org/macy-scholars by no later than 3 p.m. on March 6, 2013. Macy Faculty Scholar Program appointments will begin on Sept. 1. Finalists for the program will be selected in April, followed by interviews on June 11-12 and notification of selected scholars and their sponsoring schools on June 14.
