University funds administered in the Office of Academic Affairs - A small pool of funds for faculty professional development and travel is maintained in Academic Affairs to support faculty development in areas that are not defined by any one academic discipline. Examples include general education, innovative teaching, diversity and inclusion, undergraduate research, assessment, and leadership development. Faculty can apply for such funding by submitting a proposal to the Associate Provost for Faculty Development. Proposals should describe the opportunity for which funding is sought and include a proposed budget.
Funding for Faculty Travel available in the College of Arts and Sciences, duPont-Ball Library, School of Business Administration, and School of Music.
