Award program for new faculty

The Camille and Henry Dreyfus Foundation’s New Faculty Awards program provides funding for new faculty members in chemistry, biochemistry, or chemical engineering. This is an unrestricted research grant that is awarded in September of the year the new faculty member formally begins the first year appointment. Only faculty members who are due to start their first full-time tenure-track appointments in the year of nomination are eligible for awards. Nominees are normally expected to have no more than three years of postdoctoral experience.
