College C.A.R.E.S. Program (Career Advancement/Research Enhancement Semester)
Deadline: October 31, 2024
The CARES Program is designed to provide associate professors in the College focused time to advance their record of scholarship and research to the rank of full professor.
KU Racial Equity Research, Scholarship + Creative Activity Awards
Notice of Intent: November 1, 2024
Full Proposal: November 15, 2024
KU Office of Research, in partnership with the Hall Center for the Humanities, invites proposals for the 2025 Racial Equity Research, Scholarship & Creative Activity Awards.
The awards support members of our research and creative community as they apply their expertise to profound and persistent challenges related to attaining the goal of racial equity. Racial equity is generally defined as a state where race no longer determines one’s ability to thrive because systemic barriers to quality housing, education, employment, health care, public safety and other needs have been removed. To address racial equity issues as broadly as possible, funding will be available to all Lawrence and Edwards campus faculty and academic staff (whether or not tenure-track), without regard for field or discipline. We hope to attract a diverse pool of applicants for this award.
Higuchi-KU Endowment Research Achievement Awards
Deadline for Nominations: November 1, 2024
Late Distinguished Professor Takeru Higuchi and his wife, Aya, partnered with KU Endowment to create four awards that recognize individuals for their accomplishments in research, scholarship and creative activity. Faculty from any Kansas Regents institution are eligible, and your assistance in identifying outstanding candidates is critical. Winners receive $10,000 in support of research activities.
Steven. F. Warren Research Achievement Award
Deadline for Nominations: November 1, 2024
The Steven F. Warren Research Achievement Award was established in 2006 and honors an outstanding unclassified academic staff researcher from KU’s Lawrence campus. The recipient receives $10,000 in research funds.
KU Research Staff & Postdoctoral Achievement Awards
Deadline for Nominations: November 1, 2024
The KU Research Staff Achievement Award and the KU Research Postdoctoral Achievement Award recognize the numerous contributions of unclassified professional staff and postdoctoral researchers to the research mission of KU, honoring outstanding individuals who have had a tangible impact in the research labs and projects in which they work. The award recipients — one in each category — will be recognized at a spring semester ceremony and will receive a plaque and $5,000 in funds to be used for approved research or professional development activities.
Office of Faculty Affairs Program Fellows
Deadline: Nov. 15, 2024
The Office of Faculty Affairs seeks two or more faculty members to serve as Program Fellows for an initial term that extends through May 2026, with the potential to extend the term by one additional year. The Program Fellows will work with OFA on designing and delivering faculty development programming.
2025/2026 David M. Bergeron & Geraldo Sousa Exhibit Program
Deadline: January 7, 2025
KU faculty are invited to submit proposals for their work to be presented as a Spencer Research Library exhibition, curated in collaboration with library colleagues. The exhibit will be installed in the Spencer Library gallery during the early spring of 2026. The selected faculty member will be awarded a stipend of $5,000.

IPSR Research Luncheon - Social Networks & Stigma by Association
Friday, Nov. 1, 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., RSVP required
Receiving a mental illness label or being socially connected to someone who receives a mental illness label is theorized to confer social exclusion and devaluation processes. Stigma scholars, for example, posit that family members of people with mental illness, such as parents or siblings, are at risk of experiencing stigma by association in the form of shame, blame, and contamination. This presentation shares ongoing work that employs egocentric network methods to examine mental health-related associative stigma.
Collaborative Research Luncheon: Women's Health
Thursday, Nov. 7, 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., The Jay, Kansas Union
Collaborative Research Luncheons welcome faculty, across all ranks, from the curious to the novice to the expert. By bringing together individuals with diverse research experience often dispersed across disciplines, schools, and positions, our aim is to expand professional networks and open new pathways to excellence in research that transcend the traditional silos of academic thought, foster interdisciplinary connection and jump-start novel collaborations. Register to attend.
Red Hot Graduate Research
Friday, Nov. 8, 4 to 5:30 p.m., Watson Library, 3 West
Red Hot Graduate Research is intended to bring together scholars from all disciplines, to reveal overlaps and connections across areas of interesting and methodological approaches. The format of these sessions is inspired by Pecha Kucha, which features short, slide-based talks that introduce audiences to a topic. Each installment features researchers, speaking for six minutes each. Audience members are encouraged to connect with the speakers (and each other) during breaks. We hope that through these sessions, the University will have a venue for cross-disciplinary partnering and exploration.
New Faculty Foundations 2.0
Mentoring 101: Best Practices in Undergraduate Student Mentoring
Tuesday, Nov. 19, 3 to 4:15 p.m., Sabatini Multicultural Resource Center, Classroom
Research on undergraduate success finds distinct connections between a student thriving during and after college and their likelihood to report having a faculty member who served in an influential mentor role. In other words, effective faculty mentoring has an important impact on student engagement, well-being, and learning. Whether you are considering your role as a classroom-based mentor, as a mentor in your lab, or as a mentor with your research team, this session will provide best practices in mentoring that support academic socialization, engagement and learning, teamwork and collaboration, and student well-being. Join us as we hear from Michelle Wilson, Assistant Director of Academic and Professional Development for TRIO SES & STEM, and an award-winning faculty panel from across the disciplines to discuss mentoring strategies and best practices.
