The Office of Research is pleased to announce that the application process for the 2017 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 and enhance opportunities for extramural funding for these projects. The program also supports identification and submission of proposals to potential external funding sources, helps generate preliminary data to support proposals for external funding, and provides a means to enhance research, scholarly and creative activities.
Researchers, scholars and artists who have been appointed to a junior level faculty position no earlier than May 16, 2013 are encouraged to apply. A total of $200,000 has been allocated for the 2017 New Faculty Seed Grant Program. Individual grants may not exceed $30,000 and proposals for smaller amounts are encouraged and considered equally competitive.
Guidelines for applying and the application can be found here. Questions can be directed to Maureen Bonnefin and Emily Brashear at res.dev@wsu.edu.
