Deadline: October 17, 2016
Award Amount: $50,000 maximum
Eligible Applicants: Ladder faculty, professors of the practice, and professors in residence

The Dean’s Competitive Fund for Promising Scholarship is a targeted program that provides funding in the following three categories:

  1. Bridge funding, to allow faculty to continue work on very promising research that has not yet won external funding;
  2. Seed funding, to encourage faculty to pursue exciting, original research directions that might not yet be ready to compete in traditional funding programs; and 
  3. Enabling subventions, to provide small funds in support of an external fellowship or to purchase (or upgrade) critical equipment.
