The College of Humanities & Social Sciences encourages engaged learning for our students. Engaged Learning in the Liberal Arts (ELLA) grants provide support for a broad range of student-centered, engaged-learning projects.
The College of Humanities and Social Sciences occasionally provides small grants to current UVU students to help offset the cost of traveling to CHSS-related conferences.
Faculty are required to provide a syllabus that outlines university policies, course objectives, and requirements, grading scales, an overall course schedule, and instructor contact information. Download a syllabus template below.
CHSS assigns Instructional Assistants (IA) to specific classes depending on specific criteria. On this page, you will find answers to our most frequently asked questions about having an IA in your classroom. Having an IA is a very rewarding experience as it gives faculty the opportunity to increase access to students, mentor students, and overall support student success in their classes.
