<p class="MsoNormal">The
Welch Foundation, which supports fundamental chemical research, will be
accepting proposals for the 2013 grant program. The initial grant
amount for these research grants is $60,000 per year for three (3)
years. All full-time tenured or tenure-track faculty members may
apply. <br></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">CCE faculty should submit their
proposal documents to our engineering team for review of budget, etc. We will
finalize the documents and then send to OCG for actual
submission to Welch. As you recall, the University writes one
commitment letter that covers all submission and assures the eligibility
of those submitting. Then all UH applications are mailed together,
with the University cover letter, to Welch. </p><p class="MsoNormal"> </p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">URL: <span style><a href="http://www.welch1.org/grants-and-programs/research-grants" target="_blank">http://www.welch1.org/grants-and-programs/research-grants</a></span> </p>
