Twenty-one women faculty members have received Career Development Fund awards in the fifth round of competition for the program.
The fund, part of the Michigan Agenda for Women, provides discretionary accounts of $5,000. The program is designed to recognize and address the disproportionate share of service commitments carried by women faculty.
The funds may be used to support graduate students, travel, books, computers or other discretionary purchases relating to scholarship, research or creative activity. Applicants were selected based on scholarly and service records. Service includes any professionally related activities that take time away from an applicant’s scholarly agenda.
