The Dean’s Office, in collaboration with the Professional Development Committee, will consider requests for conference participation for 2021-2022, with $1000 guaranteed and a possible maximum of $1300 available on request. Faculty who choose to participate in conferences this year may not participate in the Faculty Flex Plan. Please make your requests by November 1, 2021, if at all possible. Faculty who need to make changes should contact the Dean’s Office no later than January 1, 2022. If you have other sources of funding (grants, start-up, or endowed professorships), or if a conference offers any sources of funding for applicants, please plan to use to those sources first. Please fill out the funding request survey here.
When requesting reimbursement, please complete and submit a check request, located on the Business Office website, along with scanned copies of your receipts within 90 days of conference participation. If receipts are not submitted within 90 days, reimbursement may be delayed.
The last step after conference attendance is filling out the Faculty Good News form which can be found here.
