The PSC-CUNY research Award Program was established as a major vehicle for the University’s encouragement and support of faculty research. Most awards range from $3,000 to $5,000, although a maximum of $8,000 can be requested. In addition to funding important research, PSC-CUNY grants can provide faculty with the necessary financial support to “seed” future projects and leverage additional funding from other sources. Preference is given to junior faculty in the allocation of funds.
