Faculty Research Grants (FRG) are internal University of Memphis grant awards intended to promote the scientific, scholarly and creative activity of University faculty. The goals of the FRG program are to provide seed funds for: (1) research projects; (2) faculty embarking on new research areas; or (3) creative activities. http://www.memphis.edu/researchsupport/index.php

Grants may be funded up to a maximum of $6500 for travel, equipment, supplies, faculty summer salary (up to $4,500), student assistants, and other expenses.  The deadline is in January of each academic year, and an announcement is sent to all faculty early in the fall semester. 

The subject areas are Social Sciences and Business; Arts and Humanities; and Science, Engineering and Mathematics.
