RIGs Description
Research Incentive Grants (RIGs), each worth up to a total of $15,000, including one month's summer salary, are available annually on a competitive basis, with approximately nine intended primarily for untenured junior 艾可直播to assist them in establishing their research program. At least one RIG has been designated to support research consistent with the University's commitment to the service of faith and the promotion of justice. The research project must be initiated during the summer months but the project period may continue through the following academic year. The RIG program is designed to support research carried out directly by the 艾可直播applicant.
With rare exceptions, a RIG will not be awarded to the same 艾可直播member more than once in three years.
