| Abstract | A study was done involving a survey of existing barriers and inducements to grant-related activities among tenured faculty within the college of education at Texas A&M University. An already established effort to increase grant activity included the position of Associate Dean of Research with the responsibility for increasing the level of external funding and efforts to establish a clearly defined research culture. Consequently grants and contracts had dramatically increased in recent years. For this study all 106 tenure track faculty in the College of Education were surveyed of which 58 returned usable surveys. Survey findings revealed that a large percentage of faculty feel involvement in grant related activity is worth the trade-off for time spent on other scholarly efforts especially from a tenure and promotion standpoint. In fact 84 percent of those responding felt consideration in promotion and tenure decision was a very important factor regarding their involvement in the grant and contract process. Faculty perception affirmed the difficulties involved in developing a grant proposal. To help minimize the burden, most faculty requested that the university support the time consuming development process with release time and administrative support. Few respondents thought that recognition in a college publication was important. Detailed analysis of the survey responses are attached. (JB) |
