Non-laboratory Scholarship/Research Support Program (NSRP) Call for Proposals: Due September 30, 2021

The 2021 cycle of the Non-laboratory Scholarship/Research Support Program (NSRP) is now open. NSRP is designed to support scholarship/research needs in disciplines not driven by instrument-dependent and lab-based research. Such disciplines may include, but are not limited to, social sciences, humanities, education, design, management, and libraries. These fields require other types of resources or infrastructure such as database access, survey instruments and panels, measurement tools, and travel to field sites and archives. In an effort to strengthen infrastructure and the overall research and scholarship enterprise, priority will be given to proposals that support multiple NC State scholars and/or multiple projects at the university.
