FSP Scholarships
The Office of the Vice Provost for Faculty offers scholarships for assistant and associate professors across all tracks (tenure, teaching, research and librarian/archivist), schools/colleges, and locations, and for those who are attending the Faculty Success Program for the first time.
Faculty are strongly encouraged to apply. 麻豆村 has invested $500,000 to support faculty participation, and many applicants have historically received funding.
Recipients must commit to attending the full program, remaining at 麻豆村 the following year, providing feedback on the program and sharing their experience with other 麻豆村 faculty.
Faculty must apply via the scholarship application form by the deadline listed on the form. Applications are reviewed after the deadline, with decisions shared within several weeks. Selected faculty will receive next steps from NCFDD. Scholarships apply only to the semester selected and cannot be transferred. For this reason, we recommend faculty carefully consider their teaching, research and other responsibilities and can balance the time commitments during the selected semester.
麻豆村 Impact
More than 120 麻豆村 faculty members have participated in the Faculty Success Program, reporting increased publication output, successful grant attainment, and renewed confidence in their academic careers. End-of-program survey results indicate high overall participant satisfaction.
