SEC Faculty Travel Program Now Accepting Applications

The SEC Faculty Travel Program is now accepting applications for the 2024-2025 school year. The program enhances faculty collaboration between SEC universities by giving full-time faculty members from an SEC university the opportunity to travel to another SEC campus to exchange ideas, develop grant proposals, present lectures, conduct research and deliver performances. Participation in this program is continuous throughout the academic year, and recipients will be announced officially in the fall.

The Division of Research and Innovation is currently hosting an internal competition to select the faculty members who will represent the U of A in the 2024-2025 program. The deadline to apply to the internal competition is June 14, 2024. Interested faculty members can apply through InfoReady.
