The purpose of the Applied Research Grant program is to encourage
faculty and academic staff to apply their expertise and scholarship to
the economic development of Wisconsin. Applied research activities
improve the connections between knowledge and practice, while promoting
positive change in the state’s economy. Potential benefits of these
activities include fostering business expansion and improving
profitability, creating jobs and enhancing workforce quality, reducing
costs and increasing efficiency, and improving the quality of
Wisconsin's products and services.
Proposals are invited from faculty and staff in all academic
disciplines, including the humanities, social sciences, and liberal
arts. Funding is available for one year to researchers at all UW
institutions.
The pre-proposal deadline is November 9, 2012, however, pre-proposals are optional.
Deadline for full proposals is January 14, 2013. See "Full Proposals" at the Program Information link above for complete instructions.
