HARP Development Award Recipients Announced for FY22-23

Mar 06, 2023

The Office of Research and Innovation is proud to support faculty who are conducting important research leading to creative and performance projects or activities in the arts and humanities. This limited funding is designed to support faculty in the development of projects that seem likely to enhance the reputation of the faculty member and of the university. Funding is provided, in part, through the generosity of the Michigan State University Research Foundation at a level of approximately $25,000 per project.

After completion of the most recent grant competition cycle, we are pleased to announce the following Humanities and Arts Research Development Program award recipients for FY2023. Congratulations to this year's ten recipients.
