Through the generosity of the family of Julian Park, the first dean of Arts and Sciences at the University of Buffalo, a fund has been established to support one early publication by junior (untenured) faculty in the College. The Julian Park Publication Fund is intended to defray costs directly connected with a work already accepted by an editor or publisher. Examples of such costs include mandatory page charges, reproduction rights, quotation permissions, photographic plates, extraordinary layout requirements and partial subvention if required by the press. The funds may not be used for the purchase of reprints.
Applications (for support up to $5000) are invited from junior faculty holding (or soon to hold) tenure-track positions who have no other source of publication support from the College of Arts and Sciences. We anticipate supporting up to 4-5 requests annually and awards will be made until funding is exhausted. Funding is restricted to one early publication originating from the University at Buffalo. If you have recently had an article, book or project accepted for publication, and there are preparation or production costs that will be expended before June 1, 2024, you may apply for support from the Julian Park Fund.
Applicants should submit the following to Sambandamurthy Ganapathy, associate dean for research:
Applicants must state the amount they are requesting from the Fund and the specific reasons for the request.
Application may be made at any time. Please do not include original material or receipts. Typically, awards are determined within 30 days. Expenditures must be completed by June 1, 2024.
Supported publications acknowledge the assistance provided by the Julian Park Fund, College of Arts and Sciences, University at Buffalo.
