Energy Boost Seed Grant submissions open
Faculty interested in funding through the Energy Boost Seed Grant program may provide submissions. The program offers competitive, peer-reviewed grants that make available initial support for new, long-term programs of collaborative interdisciplinary research relating to advanced coal and energy that will have a strong potential to attract external funding.
Proposals are due by Jan. 8, 2016. Faculty may request up to $50,000 for projects of one-year duration or less. Winners will be announced April 6, 2016 at the SIU Energy Day, and projects will start July 1, 2016. Program and application information is available here.
