Faculty sought for Research Development Fellows Program

Spring Research Fair is April 15.

The Office of Research and Economic Development is seeking applicants for the 2019-2020 Research Development Fellows Program, a yearlong program designed to help full-time, pre-tenure faculty obtain the information, resources and approaches necessary to prepare competitive grant proposals to external sponsors.

The deadline to apply is Oct. 2.

The program is ideal for early career faculty intending to submit proposals to federal funding programs such as the Department of Defense Young Investigator Program, National Institutes of Health Exploratory/Developmental Research Grant Program (R21), National Science Foundation Faculty Early Career Development Program and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Agriculture and Food Research Initiative.
