Planning Grant RFP and Application PDF RFP and Application DOC OPEN CEAH invites applications from associate and full professors for project design/planning grants leading to awards and major funding from agencies recognized by the Association of American Universities (AAU) [see RFP: Eligibility]. Internal grants in the range of $10,000 to $12,000 will be awarded for such purposes as travel, materials, research assistance, and release from teaching, for progress over one year toward fulfilling a specific funding agency's requirements. Applications for these CEAH Planning Grants must propose a substantial project in the arts and humanities that incorporates specific activities addressing a major funding agency's expectations and review criteria. Research Grant RFP and Application PDF RFP and Application DOC OPEN CEAH provides grants up to $5,000 to tenured and tenure-track faculty for research and creative activity in the arts and humanities. The intent of the grant is to contribute to the professional development of faculty by funding projects with research-related outcomes in humanistic scholarship, design, and creative artistic production. Seed Grants for Collaborative Work RFP and Application PDF RFP and Application DOC OPEN CEAH provides seed grants for collaborative, interdisciplinary research and/or artistic production. These grants are created to support efforts that bring together existing strengths and capabilities to create programs that have the potential to compete nationally for significant recognition. Supported projects bring together teams of two or more faculty researchers to experiment and assume some risk in pursuing arts and humanities scholarship that cuts across normative academic boundaries. It is expected that funded research teams will pursue external funding to help insure the long-term sustainability of their projects.
