UCSF Academic Senate Chancellor’s Fund 2024

How To Apply
2024 Chancellor's Fund is open for accepting applications

The Chancellor's Fund aims to benefit faculty within their academic life at the University. We award individual and team applications especially those benefitting more than just one faculty member.

UCSF Faculty:

  • In any series (Clinical X, In Residence, Ladder Rank, Adjunct, and Health Sciences Clinical), at any percentage of effort, are eligible to apply.
  • Instructors, Specialists and Professional Research Series are not eligible.
     
Step 1 Select a Chancellor's Fund to apply for:
  1. Faculty Learning and Development: Both individual and groups of faculty (up to 4) can apply for an individual or group grant with a specific project focus.-- SOD, SOM, SON and SOP School Faculty Councils.
  2. Conference Registration Grants in Education and Research (3 categories):
    • Educational Curriculum - Committee on Educational Policy
    • Research - Committee on Research
    • Virtual Conferences – Committee on Sustainability
  3. Faculty Writing Support Fund: The Faculty Writing Support Fund is intended to assist faculty who need financial support in their writing, publication, and scholarly communication activities.
  4. Micromobility Grants: The Micromobility Grants are awarded by the Sustainability Committee to support faculty in commuting to work via bicycle.
