Summary

Research Enhancement Grants (REG) support research activities that are necessary to revise a previously submitted grant proposal in preparation for resubmission to an external sponsor. Activities may include preliminary data collection, background research, stakeholder outreach, or anything identified by the review panel as critical to a successful resubmission. Research & Innovation seeks REG applications from faculty members who plan to resubmit a proposal that was submitted to, but not funded by, a federal agency or other sponsor. Resubmission does not have to be to the same program or agency as the original if the applicant determines that the revised project would be more competitive in another program or agency.

Anticipated funding amount and cost share

• Up to $20,000 per award
• Cost share is allowed but not required

Due date
