The Late-Stage Research Grant (LSRG) is a highly competitive program administered by the LAS Dean’s Office and adjudicated by the College Research Committee. It is designed to support research projects undertaken by tenure-line faculty that are verifiably accepted for imminent publication and lack only final requirements necessitating paid clerical assistance. In this way, the LSRG funds projects that the FSRG does not. Applications for the LSRG may be submitted at any point during the calendar year; however, program funding is very limited. Potential applicants are strongly encouraged to apply as soon as they meet expectations explained in the guidelines, available below. See the guidelines for instructions on how to apply. Previous LSRG recipients are identified here. The LSRG funding cycle for 2025-26 is now open. Questions may be directed to LASgrants@depaul.edu.
