2012 Summer Faculty Fellowship Program

[ Download application here] 

About the Program:  The Summer Faculty Fellowship Program (SFFP) is for individual tenure-track or tenured faculty and full-time librarians who are involved in an active program of scholarship, including the scholarship of discovery, integration, application, and teaching.  The program aims to provide salary support for efforts to build on previous scholarly or creative endeavors (e.g., for the writing of scholarly products or grant proposals) or to move projects in a new direction (research that could provide the basis for future proposals).  The fellowship amount is $7,100 total, paid in two installments in July and August of 2012.   

Eligibility: All full-time tenured and tenure-track faculty and full-time librarians who did not receive a 2009 or 2010 SFFP Award, with the following stipulations:   

• Faculty holding endowed chairs are ineligible if they receive research funding as part of the chair.  
• Faculty receiving a summer stipend from an external grant or fellowship will not be considered.  
• Recipients may not teach more than one summer course.   
• Full-time employment the subsequent year is required for receipt of funds (faculty on sabbatical will be counted as full-time employees during their sabbatical).   

Application process:  Submit the completed proposal by email to orssp@seattleu.edu or to the Office of Research Services and Sponsored Projects (ORSSP) in the University Services Building, room 203, by noon November 4, 2011.
