Overview
Minigrant funds are awarded through SFA's Research
Enhancement Program. Awards are intended to help faculty members with unforeseen expenses in creative and scholarly work and to enhance research
opportunities for faculty members, support innovative research,
and serve as seed monies to increase a faculty member's competitiveness
in the acquisition of external funds. See Minigrant Guidelines below (revised April 08).
