Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Awards Program
Program Summary
This program supports the research and teaching careers of talented young faculty in the chemical sciences, including biochemistry, materials chemistry, and chemical engineering. It provides discretionary funding to faculty at an early stage in their careers. Criteria for selection include an independent body of scholarship attained within the first five years of their appointment as independent researchers, and a demonstrated commitment to education, signaling the promise of continuing outstanding contributions to both research and teaching. Nominees must hold a full-time tenure-track academic appointment, and are normally expected to have been appointed no earlier than mid-year 2004. The Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Awards Program provides an unrestricted research grant of $75,000.
UIC is restricted to one application.
