The CHSS Research Development team is part of the Dean's Office and charged with assisting faculty and staff in obtaining funding for their research and scholarship activities. Sometimes referred to as pre-pre-award, Research Development provides tools and resources to develop competitive applications that convey the importance and timeliness of the projects proposed.
CHSS Research has a new Research Development Resources document library particularly for CHSS faculty and staff. This secure SharePoint site contains resources such as copies of successful applications for NEH summer stipends, boilerplate information for facilities and other resources, and tools to evaluate research positioning and ideas. New resources will be added as they are developed.
CHSS faculty and staff may request access to this secure site by clicking this link:
