Each project will be given up to $5,000 to fund the research. The proposed amount will be paid out in three equal payments via budget transfer according to three milestones on the project:
- Milestone 1: Submission of IRB (end of Fall 2020)
- Milestone 2: Completion of data collection and submission of a mid-project report (end of Spring 2021)
- Milestone 3: Completion of white paper/report (end of Summer 2021)
In addition, a travel allowance may be available for the faculty member to present their research at a conference (subject to university travel restrictions).
Each proposal should include an itemized budget of how project money will be spent. Sample budgeted items may include:
- Compensation for faculty time to conduct research
- Funding for research or graduate assistants
- Incentives for research participation
- Software or equipment for the study
