Seed grants funding for equity, diversity and inclusion research/developmental projects available

Posted by on Thursday, March 2, 2017 in News and Events.

The Office for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion has funds available at this time to support pilot research or developmental projects on equity, diversity and inclusion. The cooperation of the Chancellor and Provost has been important in this effort. Small seed grants ($1000-$10,000) are available immediately for this purpose and the proposed research or development ideas will be peer-reviewed using some of the current review processes. The deadline for receiving 1-2 page proposals or descriptions of ideas is 5pm on Friday, March 17, 2017 with decisions made no later than by Monday, March 27, 2017.  We want to have a prompt turnaround so that initiatives can be supported ASAP by the end of March. Funds must be expended by June 30, 2017.
