Faculty Research Incentive Plan
About the FRIP

This self-sustaining compensation program rewards high-funded faculty and supports recruiting and retaining top grant-funded faculty consistent with our peers. Using incentive funds recovered from research grants, the FRIP reinforces your goal to provide exceptional instruction and research activities to all students, championing instruction and research activities through a reallocated base salary.
