About
College of Fine Arts Awards and Grants
The College of Fine Arts will recognize the outstanding work of its faculty and staff and the achievement of college alumni and external partners. Awards will be recognized at the College of Fine Arts Awards Reception with invitations to members of the college and supporters and stakeholders internal and external to UTRGV. Funding will come from college funding but there is an opportunity for College of Fine Arts supporters to name awards in their honor/memory through an endowed gift.
Additionally, the College of Fine Arts encourages award winners to compete for similar awards at the institution level. So, when applicable, the application process is similar at both the college and the institution levels. The awards are in two categories: excellence awards and achievement awards.
APPLICATION
The FY25 College of Fine Arts Travel Grants support faculty engaging in research and creative activity-related travel, with awards ranging from $500 to $1,000. Applications are available online, and the College Leadership Council makes monthly decisions on grant recipients. While funding is limited, the college hopes this initiative will provide an additional resource to complement the support already offered by departments and the institution.
