About the Seeding Excellence Initiative – OVPR Community Engaged Scholars (AHSS)

SEI, a two-year initiative, aims to sustain the continued growth of the campus research enterprise by providing competitive pilot funding in four strategic areas. The OVPR Community Engaged Scholars program (AHSS), one of SEI’s four strategic areas, will invest in the success of the University’s efforts to partner with Iowa’s communities for sustained research and scholarship collaborations. SEI is made possible through funding to RDO from the public-private partnership(P3) Year 1 funding cycle.

The Research Development Office (RDO) and the Obermann Center within the University of Iowa Office of the Vice President for Research (OVPR) seek proposals for one-year OVPR Community Engaged Scholars (Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences [AHSS]) proposals. The goal is for university/community teams to find productive approaches to solving problems the faculty and partner both deem significant. In FY23, it is anticipated that there will be up to 8 OVPR Community Engaged Scholars (AHSS) awards through the Seeding Excellence Initiative (SEI).

The deadline for the Seeding Excellence: OVPR Community Engaged Scholars grant is Oct. 26, 2022.
