The Moynihan Institute will grant awards to graduate students of any discipline to support research concerning the regions below. Typically, these awards will be used during the summer of 2024. The purpose of the award is primarily to provide graduate students with the opportunity to conduct field research, pursue archival research, gather preliminary data, make contacts, map topics, undergo advanced language training, and increase competitiveness of future funding proposals.
...
You may apply for more than one grant from the Moynihan Institute, but no more than one award will be given by the Moynihan Institute per year per student. Awards are ranked separately, so if your proposal is accepted by more than one committee, you will be awarded the better opportunity. Previous recipients of this or other grants awarded through the Moynihan Institute of Global Affairs are eligible but not a top priority.
*We will be offering a "Proposal Writing Workshop" on Thursday, September 26, 2024 at 3:30 pm ET in Eggers 341. The workshop will be hosted by Sue Wadley, Professor Emerita of Anthropology.
