GHR Foundation Grant Funding
The School of Nursing and Henrietta Schmoll School of Health have received generous support from the GHR Foundation to support faculty and students in their work to improve societal health and well-being and prepare high quality healthcare providers. Funding has been made available to the broader St. Catherine University community to promote and advance this work.
Innovative Scholarship Grant
Through the Innovative Scholarship Grant, faculty in any discipline, college, or school may apply for up to $20,000 to support research and scholarship that aligns with the priorities of preparing high-quality healthcare providers and/or improving health across the lifespan. Priority points will be given to proposals that engage students in research or scholarship and are designed to position recipients for later external funding.
Eligibility: St. Catherine University faculty members are eligible to apply. Adjuncts are not eligible to apply as PIs, but can be involved on the grant as a Co-PI or collaborator. The applicant’s Chair or next level approver must sign off before the proposal is reviewed by the committee.
