Funding Application

Congratulations on completing the requirements of the Scholarship and Teaching Excellence Program (STEP) at Texas State. To support your scholarship, you are eligible for the $600 funding, to be spent between October 1, 2024 and August 31, 2025.

STEP funds are awarded solely for scholarly activity that will contribute to your career growth at Texas State. Common uses of the funds are for conference registration and travel, equipment or books, or other expenses related to your scholarship or creative activities. We will transfer the funds directly to your department around October 1, 2024. 

Please fill out the funding request between now and August 16th. Once received, we will review your request and send you and your department/school budget specialist confirmation and more information about the funds transfer process. 

We hope that STEP provided you with knowledge and skills that will enable you to continue to grow in your teaching and scholarship. We trust that the program gave you opportunities to collaborate with other faculty members and offices across campus, and we hope that those collaborations and friendships continue and deepen during your career here. Please keep us updated on your milestones.

On behalf of the Faculty Development team, we want to say thank you, best wishes, and keep in touch.

-Candace, Kamarie, and Veronica
