Recently, the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) is
strengthening the extension function of the Higher Education Institutions
(HEIs). In fact, the Commission has Grant-In-Aids (GIA) for extension
programs and projects. Aside from CHED, other institutions such as
Department of Science and Technology (DOST) and Department of
Agriculture (DA) provide grants for extension.
To better reinforce the extension function of the University, the
creation of the CvSU Extension Grant is proposed. The grant aims to produce
high quality and relevant extension projects for the promotion of community
development.
The CvSU Extension Grant shall give priority to extension projects
which are: aligned with the University Research and Extension Agenda; based
on the needs of the community; utilize University research outputs;
multidisciplinary; and apply appropriate extension approaches, strategies and
methods.
Section 1.1.1. Objectives of the CvSU Extension Grant
1. To promote and encourage faculty and staff to conduct relevant
extension activities and/or public service work in line with
institutional, regional, national, and global thrusts;
2. To provide financial support for extension projects that receive
minimal funds; and
3. To strengthen the extension function of the University.
