STP's Grants and Awards Programs
(includes deadlines for recognition and mentoring programs)

The Society for the Teaching of Psychology offers several categories of grants, awards, and recognition that support our mission of promoting excellence in the teaching and learning of psychology; advancing the scholarship of teaching and learning; advocating for the needs of teachers of psychology; promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives within the teaching and learning of psychology; fostering partnerships across academic settings; and increasing recognition of the value of the teaching profession.

Consistent with our Mission Statement and the Statement on Addressing Systemic Racism and Inequity in STP, we encourage applications from colleagues who are from underrepresented groups and have diverse backgrounds and experiences.
