College and School GrantsFurther InformationDean’s Grants, College of Arts and Sciences The College of Arts and Sciences supports the scholarship and creative activity of our tenure-stream teaching scholars by supplementing internal and external funding with Dean's grants. On an ongoing basis, the Dean will accept proposals for important faculty research projects (travel for research, to present findings at a conference, etc.) that are in line with established research agendas and hold promise of eventual publication in peer-reviewed venues. The department Chair and/or research committee must provide a written recommendation for each proposal. The Dean may inquire as to whether appropriate departmental funding has been exhausted, and may also recommend that the proposals be sent to other internal sources of support (e.g., the Provost, a Center of Distinction, etc.) when this seems appropriate. Within the limits imposed by budgetary constraints, up to two Dean's grants per year may be awarded to tenure-stream faculty, normally not exceeding $1,500 each.
