Faculty Impact Fund
The aim of FIF is to enable knowledge exchange (KE) and impact activities helping researchers maximise the impact from their work and contribute to economic, societal, and cultural development in their region and beyond. It is open to academic staff across all disciplines in HaSS, regardless of contract length or type. Guidelines and application forms are available on the internal Faculty Impact pages here: https://newcastle.sharepoint.com/hub/hss/Pages/impact_funding.aspx
Applicants must submit their completed application form to the Director of Research within their School no later than Monday 3 October 2022. Please do not submit your application directly to or the Faculty Office. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to fund another call this year and therefore recommend that applicants apply to the Standard Call for any activities they wish to complete before 31 July 2023.
