The New Faculty Research Program aids faculty who recently received their terminal degree and who have not had previous support, exclusive of that as a student or a postdoctoral fellow.

Grants up to $10,000 will be awarded to individual faculty members, as part of the University of Houston (UH) efforts to support research and scholarly activity that constitute an integral part of the University’s Research program. A total of $100,000 is available for the New Faculty Research Awards program. 

These awards are specifically targeted for scholarly activity in the humanities, arts, social sciences, and education. Pilot projects from any area, including engineering, natural sciences, and mathematics, will be considered if they meet the criteria for submission. Grants will be awarded strictly on merit and DOR review.

Proposals must be submitted by Friday, November 3, 2023, before 5 p.m.(CST)
