GRANTS- Deadline Approaching: NCEEER Short-Term Travel Grants, April 15, 2009

Posted by: Shoshana Billik <shoshana@nceeer.org>

The deadline for the next round of NCEEER Title VIII Short-Term Travel
Grants for Research in Central Asia, the Caucasus, and the Balkans is
Wednesday, April 15th, 2009.

About the Short-Term Travel Grant Program

The Short-Term Travel Grant program for research on Central Asia, the
Caucasus, and the Balkans provides a maximum award of $3,000 for research
on the countries of Central Asia, the Caucasus, and the Balkans. To
qualify, applicants must be US citizens or permanent residents with a
Ph.D. degree, or US citizens or permanent residents with comparable
research experience in any discipline of the humanities and social
sciences and holding a professional terminal graduate degree.

While a wide range of topics receive support each year, all Title
VIII-funded research must contribute to a body of knowledge enabling the
U.S. government to better understand the region and to formulate
effective policies. Applicants to NCEEER programs must thus demonstrate,
directly or indirectly, how their research impacts upon current policy
debates and research on such issues.

How to Apply

Applications are available for download at the following URL:

or by contacting the NCEEER office at the address below. Applications and
all supporting materials must be received by the application deadline
date.
