Funding-Spencer
Foundation - Midcareer Grant Program; September 13, 2016
Description
The
Midcareer Grant Program provides support for a year-long program of study for scholars
interested in advancing their understanding of a compelling problem of
education by acquiring new skills, substantive knowledge, theoretical
perspectives, and/or methodological tools. It is not intended to encourage
researchers to abandon their existing area of expertise, but rather to build
on, enrich, and extend that training with the acquisition of new methodological
tools and/or perspectives about a subject to which they have been deeply
committed throughout their academic career.
Grants
of up to $150,000 will be awarded for projects focused on the exploration of an
important problem, or set of problems, of education that is well aligned with
the applicant's core interests and past scholarship
To
be eligible, applicants must be a faculty member or a research scholar who was
awarded a doctorate within the last seven to twenty years.
An
informational call will be held on June 10, 2016, at 11:00 p.m..CT. Participation
in the call is not required in order to submit a proposal; however, registration
is required.
Closing
Date:
September
13, 2016.
