Grant Writing Fund
Goal
The Grant Writing Fund is available to support and encourage faculty and staff to seek external grant funding for research and scholarly activities.
Objective
The Grant Writing Fund provides an incentive for faculty and staff to seek external funds to support research, creative, and pedagogical projects. Funding for this initiative is provided by allocated indirect cost funds.
Guidelines
The Grant Writing Fund will provide an award of up to $3,000 to a principal investigator (PI)/full-time University employee or team who commit to the development and submission of a major proposal to an external funding source. The proposal should seek funds that equal or exceed $8,000.
Examples of appropriate expenditures include:
- Release time during the academic year, or a summer stipend
- Select travel expenses (visits to funding agencies, etc.)
- Office and computer supplies, including software
- Hourly wages for assistants
All funding must be used within one year of the grant award date. In the event that the principle investigator (PI) fails to submit a proposal to an external funding source, the PI will not be eligible to receive Research and Grants program funding for a period of two years.
