Faculty Fellowship Proposal Summary Guidelines

Quarter(s) requested:

Project Planned: A brief description outlining the activity planned.

Location: If travel is planned (including visits to libraries, institutes, etc., in other cities) it is useful to have this outlined as clearly as possible. If work with other researchers or scholars is planned, list the name and positions of these persons.

Estimates of Time Utilization: If the proposed leave is to combine several activities, an approximate number of weeks to be spent on each activity should be outlined. If completion of a manuscript is proposed, briefly indicate how much work is already done and how much remains to be completed.

Relation to Professional Development: A brief statement of how the author feels the leave will benefit his/her professional development and thus the department/college/university.

This summary should not exceed one page and is to be submitted with the official form (Recommendation for Faculty Fellowship Leave) to the Provost's Office. Remember to attach the chair's statement of how the department will staff the author's teaching load and other responsibilities.
