KU Racial Equity Research, Scholarship + Creative Activity Awards
Information Session: October 3, 2024, Register Here
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.
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.
