Faculty invited to submit Global Research and Engagement Micro-Grant proposals

The Office of the Provost invites faculty to submit proposals for the Global Research and Engagement Micro-Grant Program, which helps faculty pursue international research, scholarship and creative expression projects or pursue strategic, time-sensitive opportunities for global research and engagement.

The awards are open to all full-time VU-employed (provost-reporting) faculty. Creative proposals on a wide range of topics are welcome. Proposals should address the benefits to the faculty member and to Vanderbilt.

The Global Research and Engagement Micro-Grant Program is supported by the TIPs-funded Global VU Initiative in collaboration with the Office of the Provost. GlobalVU welcomes ideas outside of the scope of the micro-grant program to support international research and engagement. Reach out to internationalstrategy@vanderbilt.edu.

Global Research and Engagement Micro-Grants:

  • application portal is now open
  • awards are announced monthly
  • application deadline is on a rolling basis until June 1, 2020

This program is designed to support smaller-scale projects, with shorter planning timelines. For more information about the program, including eligibility standards, proposal requirements, funding guidelines and previous grantees, visit the program website.

All applications must be submitted online through InfoReady Review, Vanderbilt’s official submission portal.
