College of Psychology Faculty, Students Recognized at Grant Awards

Multiple faculty and students from the College of Psychology were recognized on May 7th at a joint awards ceremony for the 17th Annual Quality of Life Faculty Community-Based Applied Research Grant and the 20th Annual President’s Faculty Research and Development Grant.

In the first category, the NSU Quality of Life Council recognizes projects that relate to the quality of life in Broward County in these areas: foster care, elderly services, criminal justice, autism, adults, children, and families. The president’s grants are an internal granting initiative that provides seed funding for faculty research activities.

In total, 13 faculty members received funding from two grant types. Topics included subjects like an evaluation of a veterans resource center, or assessing brain injuries in NFL players and fighters. Projects were conducted in partnership with outside organizations such as the Broward Sheriff’s Office, as well as with other NSU colleges.
