Non-Salary Financial Support Grants (NSFSG) Academic Year 2012-2013: Call for Proposals
The Research Office is pleased to announce a Call for Proposals for the 2012 Non-Salary Financial Support Grants (NSFSG) for all full-time tenure-track/tenured faculty.
NSFSGs are intended to support faculty projects which may include the following purposes: 1) to advance the full-time faculty member's knowledge in his/her field of expertise; 2) to provide "seed" money to support faculty seeking external grants; 3) to support the creative activity of faculty in all disciplines; 4) to provide equipment (e.g., hardware and/or software) that will enhance the faculty member’s ability to conduct research and produce scholarship; 5) to provide financial support for undertaking surveys, acquiring data, and hiring student workers to process data. NSFSGs are primarily intended to act as a stimulus for attracting additional external support and to supplement and enhance ongoing activity. Therefore, any single grant will not exceed $10,000.
The deadline for proposal submission will be the Monday after Spring Break (March 19, 2012).
