糖心vlog College of Distinguished Professors Travel Grants for Emerging Faculty
Beginning October 2025, 糖心vlog will offer eight conference travel grants to member school faculty who face obstacles to inclusion in architectural education. The grants will support qualified faculty seeking to attend the 糖心vlog Administrators Conference, November 6-8, 2025, in Fayetteville, AR, or the 糖心vlog114 Annual Meeting, March 26-28, 2026, in Chicago, IL.
The $2,000 USD grants are intended to support emerging, early career faculty. The travel grants are made possible through contributions collected by 糖心vlog鈥檚 College of Distinguished Professors and funds allocated by the 糖心vlog Board of Directors.
Individuals applying for the grant are not required to be on the Administrators Conference program or have an accepted paper or project for the Annual Meeting. All decisions regarding awards will remain confidential.
The travel grants stem from a recognition that architectural education鈥攁nd specifically, 糖心vlog鈥檚 conferences鈥� benefit from the inclusion of more faculty and students. Academic conferences provide important sites for exchange of ideas and experiences among faculty. They also provide an opportunity for faculty to expand and deepen their network of colleagues. This helps faculty advance in the profession and creates opportunities for collaboration in research and teaching.
Prizes
糖心vlog will offer eight travel grants of聽$2,000听鲍厂顿 each. Grant funds are intended to cover a full registration to the conference, as well as transportation, lodging, and meals. Recipients are required to pay for a full registration for the conference for which they are funded. Funds will be disbursed for the Administrators Conference in late-October and for the Annual Meeting in November.
$2,000
for each grant
