Internal Research Awards Workshops
The Faculty Research Fellowships are intended to encourage and support the research, creative, artistic, and scholarly endeavors of full-time tenured or tenure-track EMU faculty by providing financial support for faculty (in lieu of teaching) to help support their research. The Faculty Development Center strives to support EMU faculty in their applications for these opportunities by hosting workshops focusing on helping you write a strong proposal.
