Vital Technology Grants

What is a Vital Technology Grant?

Vital Technology Grants are designed to allocate designated funds from the Student Success Initiative fee in a manner beneficial to all students by providing them with technology experiences that:

  • Enhance the technological resources at California State University, San Bernardino to support student success.
  • Broaden/enhance the quality of the academic experience through the use of technology in support of the curriculum;
  • Provide additional student access to technological resources and equipment needed in support of instruction;
  • Maintain and enhance the technological competency of students as it relates to their academic endeavors;

There will be an annual call for proposals. Proposals will be submitted electronically early in the academic year. Proposals will be accepted from student organizations, academic departments, and administrative departments. Proposals must be approved by the department chair, directors, or chief administrator of the unit and, if more than one proposal is submitted by a college or division it must be prioritized by the Dean or Vice President accordingly.

Proposals may be submitted within one of two categories: General technology proposals and College specific proposals. Funds will be initially allotted as follows: 55 % - General proposals, 45 % - College Specific proposals. Each category shall receive some reasonable level of support each year and can, at its discretion, move funding between categories. Proposals spanning two years will also be considered. Funds will be distributed no later than the beginning of the Spring Quarter.
