Funding Opportunity Application Deadline: The University Of Arizona Southwest Environmental Health Sciences Center Pilot Projects
The start date and end date below are meant to suggest that applications can be submitted at any time. Visit the website for further information. The Southwest Environmental Health Sciences Center (SWEHSC), an NIEHS funded Center at the University of Arizona, announces the availability of funds for pilot projects. To assist center members as they prepare to submit grant applications specifically to NIEHS, we are moving to a more flexible and targeted approach to using the funds that are budgeted for pilot projects. Rather than complete projects from start to end with full budgets, a set submission date, and open competition for a limited number of grants, the center will now be evaluation requests for specific assistance on a rolling basis. There are no limits to the assistance that can be requested, either in terms of the type of assistance, time-frame for the assistance, or the dollar value. It is anticipated that awards as little as $500 will be given regularly throughout the year. Eligibility: The Pilot Projects program announcements have resulted in applications from across the state. Since the funding increase in 2007, 68 applications have been received from 19 different University Departments or Centers at the University of Arizona, Northern Arizona University, and Arizona State University.
