To support faculty research, scholarship, and the presentation of creative activity the faculty travel grant program will fund full time faculty travel to domestic and international conference presentations.
These funds are not intended to support professional workshops or training. These funds are specifically intended to support faculty with travel expenses related to conference travel.
The approved funds are non-transferable. If your conference is canceled or postponed, you cannot automatically utilize these funds for another purpose/conference. Please advise sargordon@chapman.edu if your conference is canceled or postponed. Funds are approved as a lump sum for the specific purpose of the approved conference with the understanding that the traveler is responsible for using them in accordance with the University Fiscal Policy. If you have any questions about travel policies for the University, please consult the University Fiscal Policy before traveling.
Please note that there is a $2500 maximum award for international travel and a $1500 maximum award for domestic travel. Given the college’s limited travel funds, priority will be given to tenure-track junior faculty.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding this application process please contact Sarah Gordon, Director of Operations Sargordon@chapman.edu, ext. 6678.
