King/Chavez/Parks Future Faculty
The KCP Future Faculty Fellows Program was created by the Michigan legislature in 1986 as part of the larger King/Chavez/Parks Initiative designed to increase the number of academically or economically disadvantaged candidates pursuing faculty-teaching careers or an administrative position in higher education.

The Future Faculty fellows award is intended as a fellowship for those persons who go on to teach or work in a administrative position at a two (2) or four (4) year public or private postsecondary institution.
GVSU Master's degree students who are awarded this fellowship may receive up to a maximum of $20,000. However, failure to fulfill the requirements of the Future Faculty Fellowship program will result in the award be converted into a loan payable to the State of Michigan.
At GVSU, KCP Future Faculty Fellow Applications are reviewed once per year in February. This review is conducted by a faculty committee and may include not only a review of the application, but also a screening interview.
Deadline of February 15.
