Spencer Small Research Grant proposals due Sept. 11

  • Proposal deadline: Wednesday, Sept. 11

The Small Research Grants on Education Program supports education research projects that will contribute to the improvement of education, broadly conceived, with budgets up to $50,000 for projects ranging from one to five years. The Spencer Foundation accepts applications three times per year.

This program is “field-initiated” in that proposal submissions are not in response to a specific request for a particular research topic, discipline, design, method, or location. The goal for this program is to support rigorous, intellectually ambitious and technically sound research that is relevant to the most pressing questions and compelling opportunities in education.

Please view the full application guide for complete details on the program and proposal preparation, and contact the Office of Research and Graduate Education pre-award staff members if you are interested in pursuing this opportunity.
