Research Council awards Grants in Aid of Research for Spring 2014 Projects
Each year the Office of the Provost sets aside funds for faculty research to help cover research expenses, such as travel costs for faculty who are invited to present research papers at conferences, to participate in concerts or exhibitions, or to purchase materials and supplies for research projects. Those funds are supplemented by additional support designated by the deans of the College of Professional Studies and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. The members of the UW-Green Bay Research Council met in November to select Grants in Aid of Research recipients for the Spring 2014 semester.
