The Faculty Awards and Grants Committee at Bryn Mawr College has approved 11 new grants through three new programs – the Seed Grants program, Supplemental Grants program, and the Collaborative/Innovative Grants program. These new programs were launched as part of the additional funding the College provided in an effort to increase support for faculty research, and in part due to a decrease in federal government funding for faculty research.
The 11 approved grantees and research topics are listed below.
