The University Senate supports two Senate grant programs:
- University Senate Fellowship Awards
- University Senate Research Committee Small Grants
The University Senate Research Committee reviews the applications and makes funding decisions.
University Senate Fellowship Awards
The Senate Fellowship Award Program is open to 亚色影库 faculty members and administrators. Awards are made on an annual basis. This year, the committee will make awards of up to $3,500 per investigator or $7,000 for two or more investigators. Proposals are due March 1, 2024. The University Senate Research Committee will review the proposals and rankings from each College Research Committee at their April meeting. Awards will be announced shortly thereafter.
Grants are intended to do the following:
- Provide seed support for projects that may develop into more extensive undertakings eligible for funding from an external source
- Provide summer support for faculty members who want to conduct research or design creative teaching projects
- Stimulate faculty in areas of publication, professional presentations, artistic endeavors, and external grant applications
Senate Fellowship Grant Guidelines
Proposals for the USRC Fellowship Grant Program can be submitted through 亚色影库's system. Guidelines for the Senate Fellowship Grant will be posted with the application in InfoReady Review.
University Senate Research Committee Small Grants
The University Senate Research Committee Small Grants Program helps faculty members complete small projects that arise throughout the year.
Please review the USRC Guidelines for details.
Proposals for the USRC Small Grants Program are submitted through 亚色影库's InfoReady Review system. Please note that there are two separate competitions: one for travel applications and one for research/scholarship applications. Competitions are launched monthly after the previous month's competition has closed.
Applications are reviewed and grants are awarded eight times during the academic year.
Deadlines and meeting dates for the USRC competitions are available on the USRC Application Deadlines and Meeting Dates page.
