16. Our 3 Biggest Needs
1. Outstanding Young Faculty Fellowships
Helps narrow compensation gap and attract young faculty; through seed
grants for research, and honorariums that double the take-home pay.
2. Research Scholar Travel Awards
Enables each research student to travel to at least one international
conference during their study.
3. Prominent Visitor Faculty Program
Enables short teaching visits from prominent alumni and researchers abroad,
by covering travel costs (rest is covered by IIT).
