The Department of Information Technologies has annual IT Faculty Technology Stipends available for UMaine faculty for 8 consecutive years.

Faculty members, with or without computer skills, are encouraged to present stipend proposals to integrate technology applications into the curriculum. Collaborative projects are also encouraged.
