creative scholarly activity. The competitive grants are intended to provide short-term, one-time support that will "jump start" worthwhile projects and result in data or work products that can be used in developing major proposals for submission to extramural
funding agencies or private contributors. Individuals holding faculty rank, who have an appointment in the research scientist series of titles, or who have continuing or continuing-eligible status are eligible to apply, however, the Faculty Seed Grants Program
gives highest priority to junior-level individuals in those categories.

possible by the generosity of donors who have funded endowments held by the University of Arizona Foundation.
