A review committee consisting of faculty representation from each of the former FCS academic units will evaluate applications and submit funding recommendations to the CHHS Associate Dean by October 4, 2024. The CHHS Dean’s Office will make a decision and inform grant recipients of their award shortly thereafter.
Please make certain that you discuss your ideas with your Department Chair to avoid other faculty from your Department submitting funding proposals for duplicate items or projects.

However, if the applicants' money has not been spent repeatedly, the scholarship committee will consider this in the scoring process. Applications may not be considered for funding if you did not submit a final report from awards granted last fiscal year.
