The Resilient Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity Interdisciplinary Research Theme is offering a condensed fellowship/seed grant of $10,000 each that is open to faculty affiliates, post-docs, or graduate students. The effort will fund pilot projects and research activities that relate to the three themes of the IRT. The intention is for the funds to be spent from May 20 through Aug. 20. Proposals are due on April 30 and can be submitted online. Submissions must include both a 2-page research statement/proposal (including figures, citations, and also a table detailing their requested budget and justification) and the CVs of all participating PIs. Interdisciplinary Research Themes in the college are made up of faculty, staff and students. They help researchers coordinate faculty hires, share facilities and use seed funding to leverage work that could provide transformational societal impact. The RISE theme specifically converges the world-class expertise in disaster resilience, sustainable design, and social justice that exists across the CU Boulder campus to facilitate a paradigm shift in research and education related to resilience. Contact IRT Director Shideh Dashti by email for more information.
