Jorja Kimball has focused her career on research development and supporting faculty in securing external funding. She began her higher education career in 1990, working with engineering academic and scholarship programs. During this time, she served as PI on a NASA-funded grant focused on STEM recruitment using science and mathematics in engineering. She also contributed to large, collaborative NSF projects aimed at increasing the participation of underrepresented students, particularly women and Hispanic students in engineering.
In 1998, Dr. Kimball transitioned to proposal development, where she played a role in securing over $80 million in federal grant funding. She later led an office that assisted researchers across a state, garnering an additional $83 million in federally funded projects, predominantly from the NSF. Since 2013, she has directed research development services, providing professional development and proposal assistance to faculty, with a particular emphasis on early-career researchers.
