Grants for Grads incentive
The incentive program provides funding to graduate faculty and staff who submit grant or contract proposals to external funding sources that include a minimum of $50,000 in direct expenses that benefit graduate students, faculty, or programs. The external grant or contract submission deadlines should fall between December 1, 2024 and November 30, 2025.
You can review the full program description for more information. You may also find the presentation about ORSP grant support services from the 2024 Graduate Summit useful as you start exploring options.
Recruitment Travel Grants
Grants will provide up to $500 per program for faculty and staff for travel related to student recruitment. Conference travel can be supported, if it includes some sort of significant recruiting activity. Applications should be submitted in far advance of the proposed travel as practical.
Graduate & Extended Learning support for grants
Are you writing a grant to host a speaker, workshop or conference? Do you want to include community outreach as part of a proposal? Graduate & Extended Learning can provide support for grant-funded activities that go "above and beyond" the regular workload of an academic department.
