Faculty Innovative Summer Grant Development Award
Purpose
To bolster our college’s applications for external grant funding for research and
scholarship, Dean
Shogren and the CNPD’s Research and Scholarship Committee are pleased to announce
funding to
support summer work for faculty to collaborate and produce an interdisciplinary and/or
innovative
external grant application.
Deadlines
Summer Grant applications must be submitted no later than March 17th by 5 pm CT.
Application will be posted in January 2025.
Funding
Three $10,000 awards for compensation to work on an external grant submission. Please
note that
funds cannot be used to support salaries of faculty members in positions outside of
the CNPD or
travel.
- Half of the funds will cover the work to prepare the grant proposal during the summer
semester May 16, 2025 – August 15, 2025. - The second half of the funds will be awarded upon submission of the grant. Verification
of
grant proposal submission must be submitted to receive the second half of the funds. The
deadline to submit the grant is 12-31-2025.
Eligibility
- Two interdisciplinary $10,000 awards:
- If two CNPD faculty from different departments want to submit for one shared award, they will split the funding.
- If one CNPD faculty plans to work with someone across campus or outside the University, the CNPD award can only cover the CNPD employee’s salary; we cannot cover another department’s faculty member.
- One open $10,000 award:
- Not required to be interdisciplinary (but can be). Applicants must be two or more from the same or different UND departments or colleges or from outside the University.
- Awards are open to all CNPD faculty (tenure, tenure track, and clinical) who have at least a 60% appointment with CNPD.
Timeline
- Time period for receiving 50% of funding will be May 16, 2025, to August 15, 2025
for writing
the grant proposal. The grant proposal must be prepared during these months. - The grant must be submitted in Novelution, by August 30, 2025 with verification of grant submission to the funding agency by December 31, 2025, unless negotiated with the Dean.
