The instructional budget of the University of Delaware provides funds to assist full-time faculty in individual research and professional development. The program for use of these funds is designated the General University Research Program. Policies and procedures for the use of these funds are contained in a memorandum available from the University Vice Provost for Research. Deadlines for the annual awards are announced in UPDATE. The small grants-in-aid can be obtained at any time during the year by application to the appropriate dean, or if the applicant does not report to a dean, application can be made to the Vice Provost for Research.
