Bard Research Fund (BRF)
COVID Response Plan for 2021-2022

Eligibility:
All members of the Bard undergraduate faculty on a long-term appointment one-half time and above, i.e., tenured and tenured-track faculty, or regular nontenure-track faculty (as defined in the Faculty Handbook).

Funding and Duration:
Awarded funds will be available July 1, 2022. Please keep in mind that the following expenses are not eligible: salary for the applicant, food, or durable equipment (such as cameras) unless these become the property of the College. Other potential sources of support should also be documented in the application. Questions about expense eligibility can be directed to the Office of the Dean of the College (doc@bard.edu).

Application:
A brief 3-5 page application should be submitted in hardcopy to the Office of the Dean of the College as well as in a single PDF to doc@bard.edu.

Applicants are asked to:
Explain the need for funding
Articulate outcomes expected with additional funding--and how that will be measured/represented
Provide a timeline for completion of work
Include possible opportunities for students, if any, in connection to the research proposed
All recipients will be asked to submit a follow up statement after the funds are used (or they may simply use the professional activities form to include specific reference to BRF)

This plan has been formulated in consultation with Bard's CFO, the Faculty Executive Committee, and the AAUP to support faculty research in the wake of COVID-19.
