Faculty Development Fund

Deadline has passed

Through this annual research competition, faculty receive starter grants of up to $10,000 to help them begin their scholarly work, initiate work in a new direction, or continue a research project using the award as "bridging funds" between grants. Preference will be given to multidisciplinary projects. The intention is not to provide ongoing, long-term support for a project. Ideally, FDF funds will help advance a project to the point where the faculty member can apply successfully for external support to continue the project. All full-time tenure-track and tenured faculty are eligible to apply. Preapplication workshops are conducted by the SR. Proposals are evaluated by a committee of faculty who have received FDF awards in prior competitions and/or faculty whose research has received funding from external sponsors.
