|Research Enhancement Program
Research Enhancement Program grants are given specifically for the support of research and professional creative activity (see Program Guidelines). Proposals with good prospects for continuation through outside funding after an initial support period by REP are especially encouraged. As a condition of acceptance of an REP award, the recipient is required to submit a grant proposal to an external funding agency within one year after the REP funding period ends.
The REP grants will be limited to $10,000 per award of which no more than $5,000 may be for faculty summer salary. REP grants may be requested to provide capital research equipment, maintenance and operations moneys, salary for graduate research assistants, wages for hourly employees, and research travel.
The following deadlines must be met in order to assure that REP grants will be reviewed in a timely manner.
November 30, 2007: Departmental and School Review
Proposals must be submitted through the Online Proposal Submission System. Proposals will be automatically routed to the appropriate departmental research committee for evaluation after submission. Department research committees may move this deadline forward to allow them to recommend revisions of proposals to be completed before they are forwarded to the College Research Committee.
December 14, 2007: Colleges Only
Departments must submit proposals to their college committees for evaluation.
February 8, 2008: University Review
Proposals must be received from college/school research committees by the Office of the Provost no later than 5:00 P.M. for evaluation by the University Research Committee.
