SeedSeed Grants
The goal of this fund is to support faculty in:
- developing multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary collaborative efforts leading to sustainable research and scholarship;
- generating preliminary results and supporting innovative ideas leading to external funding and long-term success;
- in generating high-quality scholarship and creative works leading to external recognition and long-term success.
Eligibility: All UMass Lowell tenured and tenure-track faculty. An individual may serve as primary applicant on one proposal and co-applicant on one additional proposal. Priority for funding is given to new collaborations, projects that include multiple UMass Lowell faculty, projects that include more than one discipline, and projects that are likely to lead to external funding and/or recognition.
UMass Lowell embraces and celebrates diversity in all its forms and encourages individuals from underrepresented populations to apply for this fund.
Anticipated Funding Amounts: Up to $15,000 per project (awards may be offered for partial funding to maximize the number of projects supported) for up to two years.
