    Internal Funding for Research at UNCG

    Numerous opportunities exist for faculty to obtain support for their research programs. They include research grants, travel, publication subsidies in support of publication, media development and exhibitions; and undergraduate research assistantships.

    Research Grants

    • The Office of Research and Public / Private Sector Partnerships provides intramural research support in the form of competitive grants for which faculty can apply. These funds are to be used to initiate or enhance research, scholarship, and creative activity to make faculty more competitive to obtain extramural funds. There are three types of intramural grants.

    • For international research the International Program Center offers additional support for a New Faculty Research Grant, a Regular Faculty Research Grant, or a Summer Excellence Research Grant through the Kohler Fund. Application for this support is done in conjunction with an application for a New Faculty Research Grant, a Regular Faculty Research Grant, or a Summer Excellence Research Grant.

    Support is also available to assist faculty in curricular development.

    Travel

    • The Scholars' Travel Fund (STF) provides faculty members with supplemental travel funds to support presentation of their research, scholarship, or creative activity, to serve as chairpersons, to participate as panelists, or to contribute in other appropriate manners at scholarly meetings.

    • The International Travel Fund provides faculty with supplemental travel funds to share their scholarship with an international audience.
