2020 New Faculty Seed Grant Program

The Office of Research is pleased to announce that the application process for the 2020 New Faculty Seed Grant Program is now open. The primary goal of this program is to support junior level faculty in developing research, scholarly, or creative programs that have a strong potential to lead to sustained projects while enhancing opportunities for extramural funding for these projects. The program helps generate preliminary data that provides the foundation needed to submit proposals to external agencies, and provides a means to advance complex research, scholarly and creative activities.

Researchers, scholars and artists who have been appointed to a junior level faculty position no earlier than May 16, 2016 are encouraged to apply. A total of $200,000 has been allocated for the 2020 New Faculty Seed Grant Program. Individual grants may not exceed $25,000 and proposals for smaller amounts are encouraged and considered equally competitive.

A Notice of Intent (NOI) is required this year and must be submitted by 5 p.m. December 6, in order to be considered for this program. Late NOIs will not be accepted.

Guidelines for applying and the application can be found at https://orap.wsu.edu/new-faculty-seed-grant/.

Questions can be directed to Emily Brashear at or.orap@wsu.edu.
