Description
This internal funding opportunity is designed for Williams College faculty who have exhausted all other budgeted sources of research support from their department, program, or other college funds. The Dean of Faculty offers modest supplemental awards, typically between $500 and $2,500, to help cover additional research-related expenses such as conference travel, publication fees, or other minor research costs. The intent is to support scholarly activity when existing resources are insufficient, not to provide major research funding.
