The CUNY Office of Research is re-launching the Junior Faculty Research Award in Science and Engineering (JFRASE) funding opportunity this fall. This year, we have restructured the JFRASE in collaboration with the ASRC to build on the success of the NSF CAREER Bootcamp workshops.
The 2024-25 round of the JFRASE competition will support 5-7 early career faculty with a course release, one month of summer salary, and discretionary funds. This award package requires full participation in the 2025 ASRC NSF CAREER Bootcamp. The goal is to enable participants to write a competitive NSF CAREER proposal while developing transferrable grant writing skills.
The JFRASE is designed to give faculty time and resources to conceptualize high risk/high reward research projects and to generate the preliminary data required for major external awards. The deadline for project submissions is Wed. September 25th, 2024 by 11:59PM EDT.
