FPP grants for departmental programming
The Graduate School makes available a limited number of grants —typically four, with a maximum award of $500— to support specific departmental programming initiatives that are relevant and accessible to the general FPP participant population across campus. The money can be used to defray travel expenses and speaker fees, to provide food or publicity, or in more creative ways to enhance the quality and scope of the event, program, or service funded. Departments may submit a proposal online or email the requested information to Glenn Wright (glwright@syr.edu). Proposals will be evaluated on the basis of their appeal and likely benefit to a wide range of FPP participants. Requests can be made at any time, but no allocations will be made prior to October 1 for a given academic year.
