INTRAMURAL RESEARCH INCENTIVE GRANTS

INTRAMURAL RESEARCH INCENTIVE GRANTS
The Intramural Research Incentive Grants (IRIG) program is funded by the University and administered by Dr. William M. Pierce, Executive Vice President for Research and Innovation. Competitions for these grants are held twice a year with deadlines in the Spring and Fall.  Full- and part-time students at the University of Louisville (UofL) may apply for the Undergraduate Scholar Grant. All other grants are open only to full-time faculty at UofL.  Term faculty, one year or less, are ineligible for the MRG, PCG, and the RIG grants. A principal focus of the program is to provide funds for projects for which the director intends to seek external funding. However, special consideration is given to projects in disciplines in which there is limited opportunity for extramural support. Recent awards are listed at the end of this document.
