Many faculty members have a research project that’s languishing on a shelf due to a lack of time or resources.
The FPA Research Productivity Bursary is intended to give those projects a boost.
Created by the FPA Research Committee, these small investments will support faculty members in completing projects that will advance their own research goals, as well as the mission of the Faculty.
Applications are due August 10. The first bursaries will be granted in October.
While the bursary is open to all projects that meet the overall purpose of this internal program, some illustrative examples include:
- The publication of a completed edited collection under contract with an academic press that requires funding to move from completed to published;
- Professional proofreading and editing of a penultimate draft of a journal article or grant application;
- Logistical support for a workshop with confirmed presenters and students who could provide this support if funding were in place;
- Professional page proofing or indexing of a book manuscript prior to publication;
- Data analysis to complete an existing research project.
