Research development funds may be used to support faculty who participate in a workshop or conference designed to help them move their program of research to the next level.
Funds are available as follows: |
- Starter funds, not to exceed $200, are available on a one-time basis per faculty member actively engaged in research.
- Proposal development funds, not to exceed $500, are available for participation in a workshop when the faculty member agrees to submit an application for external funding within 6 months of attending the workshop. This funding may be repeated for faculty who demonstrated successful funding or publication from previous support.
- Federal grant application development funds, not to exceed $1,000, are available for participation in a workshop when a faculty has received previous external funding and is preparing a grant application to submit to a federal agency.
