The Provost’s Office announces a faculty development award to support a week of research and writing in late June 2009 (dates TBA) at the Summer Research Institute conducted by Harris Manchester College at Oxford University.
All room and board expenses as well as transportation will be covered. All faculty from the undergraduate college, and Calloway, Babcock, Divinity, Medical, and Law Schools are eligible to apply.
Please submit a CV and a letter of intent describing the applicant’s current research project by February 15th, 2009 to Michele Gillespie, Associate Provost for Academic Initiatives, 204 Reynolda Hall. The award will be made to the faculty applicant whose research project regardless of discipline shows the most scholarly promise and who best demonstrates the pivotal role a week of sustained research and writing with access to the renowned Bodleian Library will have on that project.
This award has been given by Robert Conway, Harris Manchester College Board Member, in honor of Nathan and Julie Hatch. For more information, see http://www.hmc.ox.ac.uk/ and/or contact Michele Gillespie, gillesmk@wfu.edu.
