The generous support of an endowment from Charles Dunn Hardie has allowed the College of Education to offer the Hardie Faculty Fellows. An appointment to the Faculty Fellows Program offers many advantages, including: (1) resources for programmatic research; (2) an opportunity to develop new research programs; and (3) capacity to leverage external funding.

The Fellows Program has been configured to offer faculty flexibility in how they use Fellows funding. Total support for each Fellow will be a maximum of up to $20,000. Each Fellow will have the option of using the money in the following ways:

1. Graduate research assistance (obtain exact dollar amounts for salary and benefits from the Business Office).
2. Travel support: Maximum of $1000 for conference travel. Funds for research travel--amount to be justified.
3. Summer salary up to current College of Education cap PLUS fringe benefits. Monthly summer salary is calculated at 1/9th of academic year salary up to a current maximum of $9,153 per month, PLUS fringe*.
4. Equipment and supplies directly related to proposed research.
