The Whitney and Betty MacMillan Center for International and Area Studies at Yale

Faculty Research Grants for 2008-2009
in International, Area and Comparative Studies


The MacMillan Center announces the availability of faculty research grants for research on projects within its scope of activity.¹ These grants are open to full-time faculty members on continuing appointment in any department of the University.  Research grants are awarded for studies that will increase understanding of specific countries and societies in the modern era; for problem-oriented and comparative studies within and between regions; and for studies in international relations.  Applications will be reviewed by a committee, chaired by the Dean of the Graduate School and consisting of selected faculty members affiliated with the MacMillan Center.
 
Projects in the humanities area should also consider applying to the Griswold Faculty Research Fund.
 
Projects in the natural sciences, the arts, medicine, and environmental studies will normally be considered only if they focus substantially on some aspects of human and/or institutional behavior.  

-- Additional details, deadlines, and application will be available in November 2008 --
