The UCI Center for Jewish Studies invites applications for research, language study, and conference travel grants. Graduate students working on any topic related to Jewish Studies, including Holocaust studies and modern Israel are eligible.
Graduate Student Grants can be used for research and conference travel, including airfare, lodging, and ground transportation; conference registration and meals that are part of the conference program. Grant funds can also be used to pay for research expenses such as archival and copying fees, purchase of research materials not available through Interlibrary Loan (ILL), and tuition for language or methods training in pursuit of their graduate research. Funds cannot be used for per diem while traveling or equipment purchases. Maximum award: $2,000.
To apply for a research, language study or methodology training grant, submit a narrative description of no more than two pages about the research project or training and how it fits into your scholarly trajectory. If applying to support language study, explain how it is related to your research.
To apply for conference travel, submit a copy of the abstract of the paper to be presented at the conference, evidence that the paper has been accepted.
