TO:                  All Faculty and Professional Staff
 
FROM:            Allan D. Headley

Subject:            Call for Mini-Grants Fall 2004
 
The A&M-Commerce Faculty Mini-grant Program offers support for research
activities.  Its primary purpose is to provide seed money to attract
extramural funding or to assist faculty members and professional staff with
taking initial steps toward major research projects.  Mini-grants of up to
$600 are available to full-time faculty members and professional staff who
wish to undertake or continue a research project.
 
Interested individuals should submit a 1-2 page proposal describing the
project and project budget to Natalie Henderson
(natalie_henderson at tamu-commerce.edu
<mailto:natalie_henderson at tamu-commerce.edu> ) in the Office of Graduate
Studies and Research by 5:00 p.m., October 22, 2004.  The request should
explain the project, the methodology to be used, expected outcome and how
the funds will be utilized.
 
Funds can be used for almost any aspect of a research project, except to
supplement salaries.  Purchase of equipment, printing, postage, data
searches, data collection and student wages are among the services for which
mini-grant funds can be used.
 
Projects that have the potential to result in proposals for extramural
funding or major research projects leading to publications will be given
priority consideration.  Recipients will have until the end of the academic
year to utilize the funds.  Applicants will be notified as to the status of
their request by November 1, 2004.
