The Faculty Grant for Research, Scholarship & Creative Activities (FGRSC) funded through Indirect Cost Returns and university funds, provides competitive, merit-based support for research, scholarly, and creative activities in all disciplines and fields. The FGRSC supports projects that will lead to the development of new and innovative scholarship and creative activities or the production of publications, attract external funding, increase competitiveness for external awards, and enhance the national visibility and reputation of Chapman faculty. The FGRSC does not support projects that focus primarily on education, such as program development, on equipment for laboratories, or provides funding for publication of research/scholarship or creative activities. Projects that involve undergraduate and graduate student involvement that is integral to the anticipated outcomes of the proposed project are strongly encouraged.
Purpose
The main purpose of the FY 2024/2025 FGRSC is to provide funding to tenure track assistant professors who are new to research, scholarship, and creative activities and don’t have funds available for their work.
Mid-career faculty applications are being considered if they are seeking to re-vitalize their research, scholarship, and creative activity after a gap in activity due to a period of exceptional commitment to departmental, university, and professional service, or personal or family circumstances.
