Research Conference Support
To enhance opportunities for scholarly interactions, the Office of the Vice President for Research announces the availability of $50,000 in grant support to organize and to host major conferences on the TTU campus. Proposals will be evaluated by this office based on their academic impact and their contribution to the overall intellectual environment at Texas Tech.
Proposals may be submitted by any Texas Tech faculty member, regardless of departmental affiliation. The amount requested may not exceed $10,000. If the anticipated conference costs exceed this amount, the source of additional funds must be identified. The total award must be spent by August 31, 2009. The funds may be used for any conference-related expenditure except for food and beverages or special entertainment. Applicants are encouraged to propose topics that introduce new, novel areas of academic collaboration and to invite world-class participants to the TTU campus.
