Fourteen new tenure-track faculty members at UAH will share $127,213 in 2014-15 New Faculty Research (NFR) awards from UAH's Office of the Vice President for Research and Economic Development. "We invested more UAH funds then we had originally anticipated due to the high quality of the proposals we received," says Dr. Ray Vaughn, vice president for research and economic development. "It is important for us to remember that we are investing based on our expectation of facilitating a return on that investment by our faculty. I've found the UAH faculty to be a very good investment."
