A Legacy of Community Engagement Support
As chancellor of IUPUI, Charles Bantz firmly believed in the power of community-engaged research and university–community partnerships to make a lasting impact on our area.
The Charles R. Bantz Chancellor’s Community Fellowship award ensures his legacy lives on by providing funding for community-engaged scholars each year. The importance of community-engaged translational work is core to the schools of IUPUI. The awards are granted annually for up to one of each of the following: an IUPUI faculty member, IUPUI student, and/or leader of a community organization working to address a challenge, opportunity, or problem confonting a local, not-for-profit organization in Indianapolis. Recipients are supported in the translating of their work with community partners, thus positively impacting people’s lives. The award are supported by gifts, the campus, and the Office of Vice Chancellor for Research (OVCR).
