Funding Opportunities

The Academic Senate reviews applications for two funding opportunities at Pratt:

The Faculty Development Fund (FDF) supports individual and collaborative research, scholarship, and professional development. An FDF grant may fund studio projects, travel, work on publications, research, interdisciplinary collaborations, or curriculum or other projects.
The Academic Initiatives Fun (AIF) supports events, exhibits, conferences, performances, publications, symposia, workshops, and other projects, that are open to the Pratt community.

Details on FDF awards and other internal funding opportunities is available through the Office of the Provost.
