The Emeritus Collegeβs Early Career Faculty Award provides small but transformative grants to UMKCβs junior faculty. Since 2019, 16 recipients have used this support to secure federal funding, publish their work, and advance their careers.
With rising costs and shrinking grant opportunities, this support matters more than ever. Our goal is to increase each award from $1,000 to $1,500 by growing the Endowment by $50,000.
Join us in investing in the next generation of UMKC faculty.
