CCAM Faculty Research and Creative Activity funding for juried/invited/accepted performances and presentations is available for the 2026-27 academic year. Faculty who are presenting/performing can receive up to $750 for domestic travel or up to $1,000 for international travel. Applications should be submitted a minimum of 4 weeks in advance of the activity.
There are seven application deadlines throughout the academic year for activities after July 1, 2026: May 15; August 15; Sept. 15; Oct. 15; Nov. 15; Jan. 15; and March 15, with award notices made shortly thereafter, subject to availability of funding.
Staff are eligible for the Research and Creative Activity Grant on a case-by-case basis. Faculty and staff applying for professional development support that does not include juried/invited/accepted presenting or performing should apply for a Professional Development Grant ($350).
