Message From the Associate Dean for Research

CLippitt.jpg


This past December, The College of Arts & Sciences partnered with the OVPR's office to pilot the Fostering Research Expansion in the Social Sciences and Humanities (FRESSH) program, which is dedicated specifically to fostering research within these disciplines. Through a specialized training program, researchers will be provided with the resources necessary to develop their concepts into competitive proposals that will be submitted to federal agencies for funding consideration.

 

Opportunities such as FRESSH are vital to expanding our support for all of our research efforts on campus. I'm delighted to share that the first group of recipients have been selected and hope you join me in congratulating them:
