Research Awards for Adjunct Faculty

The UMBC Adjunct Faculty Advisory Committee (AFAC) is pleased to announce that we still have professional development funding for adjunct faculty. UMBC established the fund, to be administered annually by the AFAC, to support professional development for adjunct faculty.

If you have been invited to deliver a paper at a professional conference, or if you are a presenter at a university workshop, you can apply for expense reimbursement through the AFAC.

This is a rolling deadline.

Individual awards will be capped at $500 for the academic year. The amount of individual awards may be affected by factors including number of applicants.

Criteria, eligibility, and conditions are posted at myUMBC. See under Groups (tab at top of screen); go to the Adjunct Faculty Advisory Committee group.

If you have been accepted for scholarly activity during summer, apply by the end of spring '17 term for summer projects.
