Description
Texas Woman's University's Small Grants Program provides internal research support through the Office of Research & Sponsored Programs (ORSP). It is primarily intended to help principal investigators take advantage of unusual opportunities as they arise, especially opportunities to obtain preliminary or pilot data. The research should have potential to become the basis of a proposal for external research funding.
The program connects immediate research needs with a faculty member's longer-term research plan. Priority is given to investigators pursuing an active research agenda and significant research funding. Its focus is research development rather than dissemination of completed results: conference travel, travel to present research results, and student projects are not supported.
