City SEEDs Awards
The purpose of the City SEED grants program is to provide internal funding for the initial stages of new interdisciplinary and collaborative work that will
-
generate data to facilitate the development of external grant applications to government agencies or private foundations by the investigators (either together or independently), or
- facilitate the development of new and novel directions of creative work and scholarship that will enhance the national and international reputation of CCNY
