Summary Information

Proposals will be considered for original scholarly/creative activities. Funds are limited and projects that are feasible with partial funding will be considered. This fund is to support faculty scholarly and creative activities writ large. For example, the types of grants that have been given in the past include funding for an art exhibition or residency, travel to visit museums/archives for research purposes, lab equipment/supplies, money for student research assistants, and specialized software or computer hardware. Proposals are accepted from all fields of academic endeavor, including artistic fields wherein the results are publishable or presented external to the university. Proposals for dissertation/thesis research or curriculum development will not be accepted. Curriculum development is broadly defined, including pedagogical research or education outcomes assessment.
