Description
Summary:The Sponsored Project and Research Center Office at the University of Northern Colorado developed the Sponsored Project Development Award (SPDA) Fellowship Program as one piece of its internal grants program. The design for the Fellowship Program is an amalgamation of ideas garnered from a study of other institutions' faculty development and internal grants programs. The Fellowship Program provides new faculty members with a research development account and involves them in a two-year series of hands-on development activities related to grantsmanship and proposal writing. In 2003, seven Fellows were selected through a competitive application process. This article is a roundtable discussion about various aspects of the SPDA Fellowship.
