Four College of Social Sciences and Humanities faculty members have received CSSH Dean’s Research Development Awards for the Spring 2014 cycle, representing the fourth cohort of recipients since the program began in fall 2012. The grants are designed to support CSSH faculty members’ research and lead to proposals for more significant support from external sources. A committee of CSSH faculty and Dean’s Office staff reviewed all proposals, and then make recommendations to the Dean.
Each year, CSSH offers two funding cycles for this initiative. For more information on the application process, please review the call for proposals.
