Travel Funds Matching Program
Travel Funds to Visit Program Managers
Purpose: This program is intended to make matching funds available for new faculty to visit program managers at federal agencies and national labs. The funds come from the College and are administered by Associate Dean's Office for Research (ADR).
Eligibility: Tenure-track CECAS faculty in the first 2 years of their Clemson appointment.
Funds: The College will provide up to $500 per eligible faculty member to pay for travel costs. The faculty member’s department must match travel funds 1:1 to yield a total of $1,000 over the first two years. The College funds can apply to one or more trips as necessary.
Approvals: The faculty member must get travel approval by the ADR or their designee at least 5 business days before departure. After returning, the faculty member must submit a brief travel report to the ADR within five business days.
