Each September, the Research Committee of the Graduate School invites proposals for supplemental funding for the following fiscal year. Funding for this program comes from an annual gift from the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (WARF). Research Committee priorities are to: support creative research and scholarship on campus; open new research areas, including multidisciplinary projects; assist junior faculty in strengthening their research programs; and provide insurance against applications for extramural funding, particularly those involving support for graduate students.
