Up to $15,000 per award is available for projects without industry collaboration. As much as $25,000 per award is available for projects that involve a New York company seeking technology, intellectual property, or technoeconomic expertise.
SyracuseCoE intends to make multiple awards under the announcement. Awards will total about $100,000 in this round. Funding availability is expected starting in February 2022, Syracuse University said.
Proposals should address how the use of the Faculty Fellows program seed funding could lead to a “significant next step” in research and technology development, strengthen New York industry engagement, and help establish SyracuseCoE and its partner institutions as “thought leaders in the targeted area.”
The 2022 Faculty Fellows Program is open to faculty members who hold full-time appointments at SyracuseCoE academic partner institutions: Syracuse University, SUNY ESF, or SUNY Oswego.
Tenured, tenure-track, and non-tenure-track faculty are eligible. SyracuseCoE welcomes proposals that involve multiple faculty members, including cross-campus teams from multiple departments, colleges and/or institutions. Teams are encouraged, but not required, to include non-university participants.
However, funds may be disbursed only to academic institutions, per the release.
The deadline for proposals is 11:59 p.m. on Jan. 14, 2022. Read the full announcement and how to submit your proposal on the SyracuseCoE Faculty Fellows webpage.
