Research Grants (FRG)
Overview
Faculty Research Grants are awarded through SFA's Research
Enhancement Program. These awards provide substantive support
for research and scholarly creative activities. Through an annual
competition held during the spring semester, funds are awarded
for the upcoming fiscal year. Faculty Research Grant awards vary
with the project scope; however, awards average about $17,000
(including salaries). Faculty Research Grant funds must be expended
in accordance with the approved budget and are subject to all
local, state, and federal fiscal regulations. All research activities
related to a FRG award are subject to applicable state and federal
laws, as well as university policies and procedures.
