      The College of Arts and Sciences, through its indirect cost returns, has limited funds available to support research projects and creative activities of individual A&S academic personnel during the academic year.  Normally, individual awards will not exceed $3,000.  This competition is open to all academic personnel; however, emphasis is given to junior personnel with research responsibilities, and to senior personnel developing new areas of expertise.
