Value of Institutional Training Grant Programs
Institutional training grants are external funding mechanisms that support the education and training of students and early-stage researchers. Awards are made to institutions for faculty to recruit cohorts of undergraduate, graduate, postdoctoral trainees, or early-career faculty who participate in high-quality research training, and mentored research experiences, to prepare them for a wide variety of research-related career paths.
