Individual Faculty Development Awards

The Office of Faculty Academic Affairs is proud to offer funding opportunities for faculty to pursue continued professional growth and development. Dell Med faculty members may apply for funds provided by the Office of Faculty Academic Affairs to participate in faculty development opportunities that will enhance a specific professional skillset or develop individual capacity to lead and drive impactful initiatives or projects in alignment with career goals.

We will award faculty with strong applications up to $8,000 to use towards participation in a faculty development program or activity.

Faculty Eligibility: Eligible faculty must hold a regular faculty appointment at Dell Med for at least one year (12 consecutive months) prior to applying for the award. Faculty eligible for awards include benefits eligible, Dell Med faculty with at least a 50% FTE appointment as a professional-track (Professor or Clinical title series) or tenured/tenure-track faculty member. All award recipients must be in good standing with the university.
