DEPARTMENT OF PSYCHOLOGY ♦ APPLIED PSYCHOLOGY CENTER, KENT CAMPUS
Application for Early Career Faculty Fellowship
In order to facilitate large-scale grant development by newly hired Kent Campus Tenure-Track faculty, the APC will
make funds available to afford substantial faculty release time from teaching. There are no limitations as to the area of
research as long as there is a clear applied aspect (not necessarily at the current stage of research). Time may be spent
conducting pilot research, but it is expected that at the end of the release semester or soon thereafter, submission of
application for extramural funding be made.
Tenure-track Kent Campus faculty are eligible to submit an application within the first two years of hire (e.g., the
applicant’s first two fall and two spring semesters at Kent). The following criteria will be most heavily weighted in the
evaluation of Faculty Fellowship Awards: (1) the likelihood of extramural funding and (2) the timeliness of the project
and its integration into a programmatic research plan.
