Notre Dame Research has opened its annual competition for faculty research grants. Currently there are two types of grants open for applications.

Faculty Research Support Initiation Grant Program: Provides seed funds to established faculty initiating new programs of research, scholarship, or creative endeavor and new faculty beginning their research programs. Grants for amounts up to $10,000 are available through this program. Augmentation of the grants by the Colleges and Departments, as appropriate to the discipline, is allowed.

Faculty Research Support Regular Grant Program: Provides funds to support outstanding research, scholarship, or creative expression that will make a major contribution in any field of study. Projects should lead to a significant outcome during the period of the award and, thus, the competition should not be viewed as a seed funding opportunity for the generation of preliminary results. Grants for any amount up to $100,000 of total funding over three years are available through this program. Augmentation of the grants by the Colleges and Departments, as appropriate to the discipline, is allowed.

Applications are due Monday, October 26th, 2015 at 11:59 p.m. EST.
