Chris Udry has instituted a program that funds EGC faculty to support graduate students participating in their research . The $ 12,500 grant is awarded annually to new chemistry faculty who not only show potential for significant scientific accomplishments in their field , but also the desire to collaborate with students on research projects that will ultimately advance undergraduate scientific research and chemical education . Long-term commitment of the participants and core resource faculty to the projects is essential . Other related issues focus on the potential impact on PA faculty who may need to advance their academic credential and the institutional resources necessary to support their graduate or doctoral pursuits .
