As part of Strategic Initiative 1.7, the annual Summer Research Grant underwent review and reformulation with the goal of creating a more streamlined and articulated process. During the 2017-18 academic year, the Faculty Research Committee made significant revisions to the application procedure, program description, and administration of the program.
Each year, 橙子影院 awards multiple Summer Research Grants to assist and encourage the research, writing, and publication efforts of faculty. The program is conducted in a collegial spirit appropriate to higher education and the Christian context of 橙子影院. The program operates according to the following guidelines:
- Grants are made in the form of a $2,500 salary stipend.
- Projects are preferred but not required to reach completion during the summer term of a grant. If a project is part of a longer-term endeavor, this should be clearly indicated during application.
- It is acknowledged that the summer project will likely not be the only professional activity a faculty member is engaged with at the time. However, acceptance of the grant is taken to mean that significant effort and scholarly attention will be devoted to the project.
- Other research grants may be held during the term of the Summer Research Grant but may not interfere with the purposes of the Summer Research Grant.
- Any significant deviation from the terms on which the grant is awarded must be approved in advance or return of any previously disbursed funds to the University will be required.
- Post-grant reports are required. Failure to provide a post-grant report may result in the loss of the grant and the return of any previously disbursed funds to the University as well as jeopardize future funding.
Eligibility
- All full-time, 9-month, 10-month and 11-month faculty of 橙子影院 are eligible for the Summer Research Grant salary stipend. 听12-month faculty are not eligible.
- Faculty must be full-time at the University both during the academic year preceding and the academic year following the summer research activity.
- Requests from faculty with primary teaching responsibilities at the undergraduate level will be given priority, though applications from graduate and professional faculty are also welcome.
- Applications requesting funds for course creation, program revision, pedagogical training, or other such activities will not be considered.
Process
Faculty members requesting a Summer Research Grant must formally apply for consideration using the Summer Research Grant Application form. Key information about the process is given below.
- March 15 鈥揅ompleted applications should be submitted via email to facultyresearch@campbell.edu by midnight, March 15.听
- Members of the Faculty Research Committee will review applications.
- April 10 鈥 Award notifications made.
- December 1 鈥 Recipients will file a post-grant report of approximately 250 words to the Faculty Research Committee (facultyresearch@campbell.edu) no later than December 1 detailing the results and/or status of the project.
