As an indication of Appalachian State University's commitment to the necessary broad cultural change that faces us as an institution and nation to be a more inclusive and accepting society that is reflective of our collective diversity, the Office of Research is once again accepting applications for The Scholarship for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion grant.
This program is intended to support projects & programs that will investigate issues related to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Proposed projects should:
- advance diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts on campus and/or community at large, or be a potential model for the establishment of other programs or activities.
- include students as active participants in experimental design, data collection, and/or analysis of results.
- have potential for being expanded upon in the future and/or for encouraging further, externally funded research on diversity and inclusion.
This grant mechanism will fund: research supplies, equipment, or services (e.g. data sets), compensation for subjects, student salaries, travel for purposes of gathering data, consulting archives and collections, assessment for programming, or collaborating with colleagues when necessary.
This grant mechanism will not fund: faculty or staff salaries, conference support, purely instructional projects, or food/drink/entertainment expenses.
Eligibility:
Tenured and tenure-track faculty members, full-time instructor-rank faculty members, and EHRA administrative staff are eligible to submit proposals.
Applicants may be listed (as applicant or co-applicant) on only one proposal under review.
