What is the QOL Faculty Community Based Applied Research Grant?
The QOL Faculty Community Based Applied Research Grant competition is an annual event in which faculty members submit grant proposals in order to procure funding for research projects which aim to improve the quality of life in Broward County. Each spring, QOL awards of up to $10,000 are provided to full-time faculty based on the quality of their applications. In the past seven years, 18 community based research studies have been funded, which brings the total to over $200,000 in QOL funds for faculty projects. Through the efforts of the university president and its Trustees, funds have been targeted to support faculty scholarship in applied research to improve the Quality of Life in Broward County. The university’s commitment is to expand NSU’s QOL programs in community based research. The funding philosophy of the NSU Quality of Life Faculty Community Based Applied Research Grant is to view this funding as seed money to be leveraged and not the sole source of funding for QOL projects
