DoD Workshop Series

Faculty are strongly encouraged to explore other avenues of funding, including Department of Defense (DoD) research grants. To assist faculty in this process, SUNY Central hosted a SUNY DoD DC Day in June 2018, which provided the opportunity for faculty to meet face to face with DoD senior leaders and program managers, and learn about their strategic directions and funding priorities. To continue the momentum gained from SUNY DoD Day, the Office of Research Advancement will organize a series of workshops during the year geared toward faculty who are interested in pursuing DoD funded research grants.
