Statistical and Research Methodology in Education (84.305D)

This program provides a wide range of methodological and statistical tools that will better enable applied education scientists to conduct rigorous education research. In FY22, IES invites applications for Core Grants (previously named Regular Grants) and Early Career Grants.

• The Core Grants topic supports the development of new and improved methods as it has in the past, and it now specifically supports the compilation of existing research and information into such products as toolkits, guidelines, compendia, and review papers.
• The Early Career Grants topic supports the development of new and improved methods by early career researchers and the maximum award has been increased to $300,000 to support greater collaboration among researchers and allow greater involvement of postdoctoral fellows and graduate students in the work.

The current request for applications is available for more information about the program, proposal expectations, and links to the IES submission guide.

Please contact the Office of Research and Graduate Education’s pre-award team to begin the submission process.
