Funding Financial support for faculty research grants is provided through state funds.
All grants are subject to the normal regulations governing the use of state funds.
These funds are not to be used to finance dissertation research, or for the writing of textbooks, or for faculty instructional improvement. Grants awarded from these organized research funds are not to duplicate funds awarded from other granting agencies. A single grant proposal may not be submitted to both University and College Research Committees simultaneously. No member of either the University or College Research Committee may submit a grant proposal for consideration at either level. A committee member who wishes to do so must resign his or her committee position.
