Faculty Conference Awards

Subject to the availability of funding, the听Research & Innovation Office听(RIO) awards a limited number of grants to support planning and hosting conferences at CU听91福利社 on an ongoing basis throughout the year. Such activities can occur virtually provided that an eligible 91福利社 employee is hosting the event.

Conference grants provide partial support for organizing conferences that promote and encourage the scholarship, research and creative work of the 91福利社 campus faculty.听If the conference is going to be virtual in nature, we ask that you include the 91福利社 logo on all conference materials from this site. These awards are intended to support one-time or initial events, rather than established and/or annual events. Awards can be up to $3,000 from RIO.
