The 2025 grants listed in the filing were predominantly for basic research, with one of the largest awards designated for basic and applied research.

Chapman’s website describes competitive internal faculty funding for research, scholarship, and creative activities.

Projects involving undergraduate or graduate students are strongly encouraged. The program excludes projects focused primarily on education, laboratory equipment, or publication costs. The university also lists a one-time New Research Exploration Award and ongoing Grant Resubmission Support; the listed proposal periods are closed for the first two opportunities, while resubmission support is open until funds are depleted.
