FUSE Faculty Engagement Grant

Previously known as the Partnership Fair, the FUSE Career Fair is an annual career fair held in downtown Spokane, Washington. Each spring, Gonzaga University, Eastern Washington University, University of Idaho, Washington State University, and Whitworth University host a collaborative career fair. Students from all these Universities are invited to participate.

The 2025 FUSE Career Fair is sponsoring the campus engagement grant initiative. Faculty and staff members can earn a $500 professional development grant to be remitted to their respective department and ear-marked for that individual’s professional development.  

To be eligible, faculty and staff members from the five Universities listed above must:  

1. Promote the 2025 FUSE Career Fair in their Spring 2025 courses or to students they advise.
2. Attend the 2025 FUSE Career Fair with at least 20 of their students.
3. Prepare a one-page summary describing how they prepared students to participate in the 2025 FUSE Career Fair and how they followed-up with students after the event.
