The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences offers two small grant programs to support faculty research and creative activities. Dissemination and CRISP Grants have been discontinued
First, is a Presentation and Publication grant that provides up to $1,000 to assist with sharing completed (or near-completed) research and creative work with other scholars via conference presentation or publication. The award can be used to assist with conference and travel expenses to present research at a conference or invited seminar or to assist with costs associated with publication such as subvention or the production of graphics or art for a book, or open access fees or page charges for an article accepted for publication.
Presentation and Publication Application
Second is a Research Launch or Completion grant that provides up to $1,000 in funding to assist with expenses related to furthering work on a new or ongoing research/creative project. These funds can be used to cover a wide range of expenses including (but not limited to) travel to collect data or work with a collaborator, RA funding, purchase of necessary books, software or data, participant incentives, and equipment or supplies necessary for research.
Research Launch or Completion Application
The applications may be submitted on a rolling basis, but a faculty member is only eligible for a maximum of one award (of either type) in a 12-month period. Please complete the appropriate application and send to Laura.Argys@ucdenver.edu.
