The purpose of the Seed Grant is to provide incentive funds for faculty to obtain pilot data in order to seek external grant funds. Since the Seed Grant program is competitive, each grant is limited to $1,000. The grant competition is open to tenured and tenure-track faculty in Unit A.

The Seed Grant applications are due to department chairs on Wednesday, January 16, 2008. The applications are due in the College of Sciences office Friday, January 18, 2008. Faculty may not reapply for a Seed Grant until COS receives documentation of submission of application to an external agency from the previous Seed Grant.
