Smith faculty in any discipline are invited to apply for course development support from the Botanic Garden’s Curricular Enhancement Program. The program provides stipends and supplemental course funds to support the development of new or revised courses or portions of courses utilizing the Botanic Garden and its resources. Teaching may revolve around collections in the Lyman Conservatory as well as the Campus Arboretum and outdoor gardens.

The application deadlines are October 31 and March 31 for courses to run the following spring or fall semesters, or the next academic year. Applicants must meet with the program coordinator prior to submitting an application to learn more about the Botanic Garden resources and to discuss preliminary ideas.
