Emphasis is placed on enhanc ing research grant possibilitiesfor new social work faculty members. Specific strategies include multidisciplinary collaboration, creating a faculty research development initiative, providing faculty incentives, and creating a school research plan. In addition, recommendations for preparing a research application are presented. Thinking and knowledge are stressed as overriding ingredients for developing a grant application. A two-page written study outline is suggested as an approach for sharpening conceptual thinking as well as providing an opportunity to receive systematic feedback.
