    Grant Support for Neag Faculty Research

    2023 Dean’s Research Incentive Award (DRIA)

      

    Fullā€time Neag School of Education faculty (tenure track, in residence, research, clinical, and extension) are eligible to apply for up to $10,000 through the Dean’s Research Incentive Award (DRIA) to fund seed research projects that facilitate the acquisition of external funding. To incentivize faculty engagement in interdisciplinary or cross-disciplinary efforts, we are only accepting proposals that involve a multi-disciplinary team, with a Neag School PI serving as the lead. The team may be all Neag faculty but must be multi-disciplinary.

    We anticipate funding up to three multiple Co-PI projects for up to $10,000 each in the spring 2023 competition. Proposals must be prepared using the official application form, which has been formatted in 12pt font with 1-inch margins. The application must be paginated as a single document and submitted electronically as an attachment (.pdf format) to Marci.Lombardo@uconn.edu by 5 p.m. on March 17, 2023.

    Funding will be available for the period of May 23, 2023 to May 22, 2024 (12 months), with anticipated notification of funding decisions by May 1, 2023. Faculty can download the grant guidelines and requirements, the application form, and the scoring rubric under Additional Resources on the Faculty Resources tab of the Business and Grant Services webpage.
