Grant funding for competitive awards at Elizabeth City State University has outpaced last year. Director of sponsored programs Annemarie Delgado says that at the end of the 2019 fiscal year, ECSU received 32 awards totaling more than $5 million, a substantial increase over last year’s $4 million mark.

“The grants awarded to our faculty and staff this past academic year showcase the various interests and strengths of our institution,” said Delgado. According to Delgado, grant funding included programs such as Upward Bound, public broadcasting, aviation science, STEM education, research on African-American history.

“We are excited by the many opportunities that these awards bring to our campus in terms growing our research capabilities, providing more undergraduate and graduate research and training opportunities and expanding our research and lab facilities,” said Delgado.
