Research Funding Committee
It is often difficult for undergraduate professors to readily know where to go for research funding. Both the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and National Science Foundation (NSF) have grants specifically tailored to the needs of undergraduate students and faculty in the form of classroom and teaching enhancement, professional development, or research opportunities for faculty and students. This session will provide undergraduate faculty with the opportunity to hear presentations from representatives from NIH and NSF and to ask questions of each.
