The UAB Faculty Development Grant Program (FDGP) provides seed money for research, scholarship, and creative activities in a faculty member’s discipline by providing funds to undertake new efforts for which money is not generally available. Early career Instructors, Assistant Professors, and mid-career Associate Professors, in Science, Technology, Engineering, Math, Arts, Humanities, Education, and Social Sciences with a full-time faculty appointment without funding of $100,000 per year are eligible to apply. FDGP funding enables faculty to develop manuscripts, publications, presentations, grant applications, future research initiatives, creative works, scholarly activity, and new skills to enhance peer recognition outside of UAB.

The 2024 FDGP Poster Session is an opportunity for awardees from 2019 - 2022 to present their research projects. The poster session is a good time for faculty to network, collaborate, and "show off" to their colleagues, Deans, Chairs, Provost & Vice Provost.
