The College of Education Small Grants Program (SGP) provides funding for College of Education tenure-track/tenured and research faculty to conduct pilot projects and/or expand existing research. The purpose of the SGP is to support research that will serve as the basis for the submission of an external grant proposal. Funds from this grant can be used for research materials, supplies, and equipment (e.g., participant incentives, photocopying/scanning surveys, computers, etc.), hourly graduate and non-graduate research assistants, research/grant consultants, software, and travel for data gathering and research collaboration. Note that travel to conferences is not supported by the SGP funding. (See List of Allowable Expenses on page 2 of the "Small Grants Program RFP" document below.)

There are two levels of awards: Level 1 (up to $5,000) and Level 2 ($5,000-$10,000), both of which support similar types of projects and vary only in scope of funding. Tenure-track and tenured faculty in the College of Education are eligible to apply, but faculty can only be awarded one SGP Award in a two-year period.
