Description
Faculty Micro Grants from the Havey Institute for Global Health provide up to $2,500 per year to full-time Northwestern University faculty who are currently mentoring medical students in the Area of Scholarly Concentration (AOSC) program. The grants are designed to support faculty travel to international partner sites, basic study supplies, essential software, and other modest expenses necessary for developing and overseeing credible, sustainable global health research projects that engage students.
Priority is given to projects with significant research activity in partner countries. The funding is intended for short-term needs, not long-term research projects, and can supplement but not duplicate existing funded activities.
