HHMI Professors
HHMI's Undergraduate Science Education Program awards four-year grants to research-active undergraduate faculty. The grants are intended to empower leading scientists at doctoral and research universities to work more closely with undergraduates at their home institutions and provide other institutions with innovative models for transmitting the excitement and values of scientific research to undergraduate education.

Competition Schedule and Announcement
No competition is currently under way. Information on the 2006 competition can be found in the program announcement.

Eligibility
Institutions must be invited by HHMI to nominate faculty members to compete for the HHMI professors awards. Invitations are based on the institutions' classifications by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching as doctoral and research universities and the institutions' records of postbaccalaureate student achievement in the sciences. Invitees are listed in the program announcement.
Professors who received awards in 2002 will be invited to submit applications for grant renewals in a separate competition, but they are ineligible for nomination in the 2006 competition.
Please note that HHMI does not encourage and rarely funds unsolicited proposals.
