Several internal funding opportunities this semester exist to support scholarly and creative pursuits. They include:
Faculty Scholarly and Creative Activity Grant
Deadline: Monday, Feb.15, 2021
The Faculty Scholarly and Creative Activity Grant is designed to provide support for faculty and staff in the development of their scholarly and creative activity programs to be more competitive in their field (i.e., enhancing the possibility of procuring external grants/contracts). Projects that are expected to result in peer-reviewed output, significant public activities/presentations and/or to have a significant impact on local/campus or national/international community will receive priority.
Student Scholarly and Creative Activity Grant (new spring offering)
Deadline: Monday, Feb. 15, 2021
The Scholarly and Creative Activity Committee (SCAC) at SUNY Oswego oversees a series of grant programs that support research and creative activities in which our faculty and students participate. The Graduate and Undergraduate Student Scholarly and Creative Activity Grant (Student SCA) program is designed to support and foster graduate and undergraduate student research and original creative work conducted in collaboration with a SUNY Oswego faculty sponsor. Please note: any Student SCA proposal that meets the criteria for the Helen Bohmer Daly Memorial Research Grant will also be considered for more specialized grant offerings. Funding is subject to availability.
Faculty-Student Challenge Grant
Deadline: Monday, Feb. 15, 2021
The purpose of the Faculty-Student Challenge Grant program is to promote and support student/faculty summer scholarly collaborations that ultimately lead to publications, presentations, performances and/or external grant applications. It is the goal of the program to assist faculty in providing motivated students, particularly undergraduates, with high-level scholarly and creative experiences. Successful applicants will be engaged in an ongoing project with one or more students who participate in a direct and meaningful way in faculty scholarly and creative activities.
Curriculum Innovation Grant
Deadline: Monday, March 1, 2021
This program supports the creation of new courses or significant transformations of existing courses to improve the student learning experience. Proposals should address how course innovations serve to enhance the overall quality of curricula, expand student knowledge and skills, support the needs of Oswego's increasingly diverse student population or implement other strategic initiatives, while embedding evidence-based learning practices.
