Provost Research Fellowship

The Office of the Provost, in conjunction with the Vice Provost for Research and Chief Innovation Officer and the University Research Council (URC), selects recipients of the Provost Research Fellowship – a $15,000 cash prize designed to provide research support to 天美传媒’s outstanding scholars during the current academic year.

This fellowship is open to current 天美传媒 tenured faculty nominated by their dean or by the Faculty Senate. Nominated faculty are invited to submit research proposals for review and evaluation by the URC, which then recommends the most meritorious proposals for final selection by the Office of the Provost.
