AMS-Simons Research Enhancement Grants for Primarily Undergraduate Institution (PUI) Faculty will provide mathematicians at PUIs (i.e., institutions that do not confer doctoral degrees in mathematics) with support essential to growing and sustaining their research. Each year for three years, awardees will receive \$3,000 to support research-related activities. Institutions will be required to administer the grants on behalf of the AMS. Annual discretionary funds for an awardee’s department and administrative funds for an awardee's institution will be available to institutions for administering the grant. No additional institutional overhead or indirect costs will be covered with these award funds.
With generous funding from the Simons Foundation; the AMS; and Eve, Kirsten, Lenore, and Ada of the Menger family, at least 40 awards will be made per year. Grants will begin on July 1, 2025; and funds will be issued to administering institutions in September 2025. Tenured and tenure-track mathematicians with an active research program; who earned a PhD prior to August 1, 2020; and who do not have more than \$3,000 in external research support are eligible to apply. In support of AMS’s continuing efforts to promote equity, diversity, and inclusion in the mathematical research enterprise, we strongly encourage and welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds and experiences.
