Adjunct Faculty Development Grant
Each school has a budget available to support the professional development of part-time faculty. The Office of Faculty reviews and approves applications for the Professional Development Fund available to eligible adjunct faculty. Adjunct faculty may request up to $1,250. Per the new contract, the schools are instructed to divide up the funds into Fall and Spring semesters.
Fall 2026 Applications are now PAUSED due to the volume of applications already received. The waitlist for Fall 2026 is also paused for the same reason. At this point and time we have already received more applications than we will be able to fund.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Completed applications should be emailed to amp22@nyu.edu using the following subject line format: Adjunct PDF Grant, Your First and Last Name, Your Department, Your Net ID, Activity Name, Total Funds Requested. Deviation from this format could delay application processing.
You will be notified regarding your application once your application is processed. On average our school funds about 30 applications per academic year.

The Board of Trustees of New York University prohibits those activities or behavior which conflict with the best interests of the University. Transactions therefore between a supplier of goods or services and the University in which a conflict of interest exists are prohibited.
“Conflict of interest” is defined as a situation in which a University official, faculty, staff, or any of such person’s family or associates either has (1) an existing or potential financial or other material interest that impairs or might appear to impair that person’s independence and objectivity of judgment in the discharge of responsibilities to the University, or (2) may receive a financial or other material benefit from knowledge of information confidential to the University.
For specific rules and requirements established by the Board of Trustees, see the Conflicts of Interest Policy for Trustees, Officers, and Senior Administrators of the University.
Funds will not be advanced ahead of activities, are subject to all NYU business expense guidelines, and are available only as reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses. Funds will be reimbursed based on actual expenses which may be less than that approved and may not exceed the amount approved.
