About Public Scholarship and Engagement Faculty Fellows

We envision a university unbound that seeks to serve the public, equitably and inclusively, resulting in reciprocal and mutual benefit to California’s communities and beyond. Towards this vision, Public Scholarship and Engagement is dedicated to building and supporting meaningful relationships between communities and UC Davis scholars that work together to solve today’s problems and tomorrow’s challenges.

We believe there is a need to examine what constitutes scholarship in the academe and how it should be recognized and rewarded. Working towards this goal, we established the Faculty Fellows program to provide incentives for UC Davis faculty to incorporate public engagement into research and teaching, as well as support student learning in community settings on our campuses, in our region, and throughout the world.
