Bruce and Denton Earn Grant-In-Aid Awards

Two University of Minnesota Morris faculty members received awards in the spring 2019 grant round of the University of Minnesota Grant-in-Aid of Research, Artistry, and Scholarship program (GIA). 

Based on the belief that faculty research, scholarly, and artistic efforts encourage academic excellence throughout the institution, the Office of the Vice President for Research administers the awards, which act as seed money for developing projects to the point of attracting more complete, external funding.
