UDRF proposals are due in the Research Office by January 21, 2019.

UDRF will support high-quality engineering and scientific research projects by early-career, untenured, tenure-track faculty. Grants are primarily in the fields of engineering and the natural and physical sciences. However, any proposal that uses scientific methods and promises quantitative results is eligible for a grant regardless of academic focus or departments. Grants will not be awarded to tenured faculty. Previous recipients of UDRF grants are not eligible to apply for additional UDRF grant support at this time. Faculty may apply and receive both a UDRF and UDRF-SI grant. However, only one award may be received per calendar year. 

Begin Accepting Applications Date: 7/10/2018 
Deadline Date (EST Time Zone): 1/21/2019 5:00PM 

In accordance with standard UD operating procedures, RO Contract & Grant Specialists (C&G) require a minimum of 72 hours to review and approve proposals.
