Seed Grants

Seed grants have proven to be very effective “fuel” to launch larger grant applications. These investments have the potential for major impact as they give our research teams freedom, support and incent faculty to push beyond existing limitations. We will expand our seed grant programs to fund projects that align with our mission and collective aspirations.

SBU is developing new seed grant programs intended to support research in the creative arts, social sciences and humanities, as well as interdisciplinary studies of scholarly work. Those opportunities will be posted on the Accelerating Research website as well as the OVPR website, where you can also explore SBU’s current seed grant programs.
