Dairy Industry Impact and Innovation - Faculty Fellowships (DI3 Faculty Fellowships)
The University of Wisconsin-Platteville continues to be honored to be a part of the Dairy Innovation Hub (DIH), an initiative funded by the state within the UW System. As part of the funding for this collaboration, we are sending out a request for proposals for faculty fellowships. This opportunity is for faculty across all disciplines to make a difference through research that relates to the dairy industry in one of four priority areas. These areas are noted below:
- Steward Land and Water Resources
- Enrich Human Health and Nutrition
- Ensure Animal Health and Welfare
- Grow Farm Businesses and Communities
These fellowships (called Dairy Industry Impact and Innovation (DI3) Faculty Fellowships) include funding potential of up to $50,000 per proposal for release time, summer salary, supplies and equipment, and student salary. This funding continues to be transformative for our campus community as well as the Wisconsin dairy industry and beyond!
Proposals with cover page and budget are due to Dr. Tera Montgomery via email by March 4, 2024. Decisions will be made by April 15, 2024 for funding available July 1, 2024 (FY25-26).
