The Transdisciplinary Teams (T2) program will provide seed grants to support UTSA faculty
members to engage in scholarly research activities that foster transdisciplinary
collaborations. The primary goal of these awards is to assemble teams of researchers from
different disciplines that will establish a foundation to seek extramural funding,
ultimately advancing UTSA’s research excellence goals (Carnegie R1, NRUF, AAU, etc.).It is
anticipated that five grants of $20,000 each may be awarded.
NOI Deadline: March 8, 2021 and Proposal Deadline: March 24, 2021
The Internal Research Awards (INTRA) program is part of The UTSA VPREDKE coordinated
efforts to promote research and scholarship of the highest quality. This program offers
experience in identifying and submitting applications to potential funding sources,
provides preliminary data to support applications for extramural funding, and enhances
scholarly and creative activities. It is anticipated that twenty grants of $5,000 each
may be awarded.
Proposal Deadline: April 7, 2021
The Connecting through Research Partnerships (Connect) program sponsored by the Office of
the VPREDKE at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) and the Southwest Research
Institute (SwRI), is a grant opportunity offered to enhance greater scientific
collaboration between the two institutions and to increase both UTSA’s and SwRI’s
research-funding base with cross-campus collaborative programs. The program encourages
interaction between investigators in support of the acquisitions of established
extramural, peer-reviewed research funding. This agreement provides unprecedented
opportunities for researchers to work together in addressing issues of mutual interest and
need. The combined contributions of the two organizations are $125,000, of which UTSA will
dedicate $50,000.
