Research Funding Schemes
In January 2013, four new Research Funding Schemes were introduced to support staff members in the realisation of high-level academic-theoretical or practice-based research activities. Since then, more than 75 research proposals have been approved for internal funding. Academics from all faculties, including the Ngee Ann Kongsi Library and the Institute of Contemporary Arts Singapore, were represented in the successful applications. Since 2017, the Goldsmiths-LASALLE Partnership Innovation Fund provides additional avenues to engage in funded innovative cross-disciplinary collaborative research projects.
Research Project Funding
The Research Project Funding (RPF) scheme provides financial assistance to support research projects and activities. It encourages and promotes the undertaking and realisation of small or medium-scale research projects as well as research-related activities that lead to a publishable outcome, and potentially to further in-depth investigations in the research topic.
Major Research Funding
The Major Research Funding (MRF) scheme provides financial assistance to support significant research activities. It assists staff members in the undertaking and realisation of high-level academic-theoretical or practice-based research activities based on clearly articulated research questions, and that lead to a publishable output in a refereed journal or a book/book chapter with a recognised academic publisher.
Academic Qualification Funding
The Academic Qualification Funding(AQF) scheme provides financial assistance to support studies leading to PhD level academic qualifications. The purpose of the AQF scheme is to assist members of staff in the undertaking and realisation of high-level academic-theoretical or practice-based research activities that lead to the obtaining of academic qualifications at Doctoral / PhD level.
Goldsmiths-LASALLE Partnership Innovation Fund
The Goldsmiths-LASALLE Partnership Innovation Fund (PIF) is intended to encourage innovative collaboration and cross-partnership working between staff and students at the two institutions.
