As part of a new Mellon Foundation-supported consortium, Crossing Latinidades: Emerging Scholars and New Comparative Directions, the Graduate Center invites pre-candidacy doctoral students who plan to work on Latino studies dissertations to apply to participate in a summer institute at the University of Illinois Chicago. The selected students will also be considered for $30,000 research fellowships.

We are also helping faculty at the Graduate Center and across CUNY apply for the program’s Collaborative, Cross Institutional Research Working Groups in Latino Humanities Studies, which come with a $310,000 award. Graduate Center faculty are invited to apply for this opportunity. Learn more about Crossing Latinidades and how to apply for the funding opportunities here.

Washington Center for Equitably Growth Doctoral/Postdoctoral Grants (deadline: 3/21/22)

Posted on March 10, 2022 by - Funding Opportunities - External

Equitable Growth will consider research proposals looking at the effects of the coronavirus recession and ongoing pandemic if the outcomes of interest will be relevant to future recessions.

Doctoral/postdoctoral grants are open to graduate students currently enrolled in a doctoral program at a U.S. university and to recent Ph.D. graduates currently in a postdoctoral position at a U.S. university. If you are currently a graduate student or in a postdoctoral position, you may choose to apply for either an academic or doctoral/postdoctoral grant, depending on the pool in which you’d like to compete.

International students at U.S. universities are eligible to apply, though if awarded the grant would likely need to be administered through the university. International students are advised to communicate their intention to apply with their institution to ensure adherence to institutional protocol if funded.

Doctoral/postdoctoral grants are funded at $15,000 over 1 year.

Just Tech Fellowship (deadline: 1/2/22)

Posted on November 9, 2021 by - Funding Opportunities - External

The Just Tech Fellowship is a remote, two-year, full-time research fellowship that invests in a diverse community of researchers and practitioners who will identify and challenge injustices emerging from new technologies and identify solutions that advance social, political, and economic rights.

The Just Tech Fellowship is designed not only to support a researcher’s work but also to invest in their entire person and build a supportive community. The fellowship offers two-year unrestricted awards of $100,000 per year with the intention of opening space, time, and resources for fellows as they envision and enact more just technological futures. The awards are augmented by robust supplementary funding packages to subsidize dependent care, health care, work space, technical equipment, project materials, communications, or other needs.
