Research Support Grants
Lawrence offers research funds to encourage the scholarly and creative endeavors of its faculty. In most cases, these funds are granted with the expectation that the project will culminate in a publication, presentation, or improved artistic performance. Requests will be evaluated according to the faculty member’s previous records in research and publication or performance. Preference will be given to those who are qualified and untenured, and who have not received research funds in the past, or for which applications for outside funding have been denied.
Eligibility
Support will be for specific projects undertaken by full-time members of the faculty. Faculty members seeking funds for research while on leave may not be eligible. A discussion with the Provost prior to applying is recommended. Faculty members who have non-renewable appointments of less than two years are not eligible to apply. See chapter VI of the faculty handbook for details on eligible expenses and multi-year budgets.
