The Faculty Small Grant Program offers up to $10,000 over one year to support new and innovative research or creative work by career and tenure-line faculty with at least 0.50 FTE. Projects must be original and not continuations of existing work. The program aligns with emerging health, technology, and society areas and requires applicants to have no outstanding final reports on past VPR-funded projects. Applications are due annually on the first Thursday in December.
Eligible applicants are career and tenure-line faculty with at least a 0.50 FTE appointment. Adjunct faculty may serve as co-PIs. Applicants must have no outstanding final reports on past VPR-funded projects and commit to completing the project within one year.
