Travel Grants for Emerging Faculty (TGEF)

The TGEF program, which consists of two components (I and II), was established to assist emerging faculty (tenure track but non-tenured) in the science and engineering disciplines by providing travel funds needed to further their research and build strong collaborations.

The eligible disciplines include: biological sciences (all); mathematical & computer sciences; earth & environmental sciences (geology, oceanography, environmental); engineering (all); physical sciences (astronomy, chemistry, physics); and the social & behavioral sciences.

TGEF I provides up to $1,200 to untenured tenure-track faculty seeking to visit a federal funding agency program officer to discuss their research proposals.  The award amount can be increased to $2,400 if the applicant is accompanied by an established tenured professor.

TGEF II provides up to $1,200 to untenured tenure-track faculty who have been invited to present plenary or major invited talks at national or international meetings.

Deadline: Open deadline until July 31, 2020

Applicants must submit proposals through LOGAN to LA EPSCoR at the Board of Regents at least 30 days prior to the requested start date of travel.
