IES Releases Two New FY 2024 Requests for Applications (8/17/23)
Posted: 6/15/2023 (Funding)
The Institute of Education Sciences has released two new requests for applications for fiscal year 2024 (FY 2024) and invites applications for the Using Longitudinal Data to Support State Education Policymaking Grants program (84.305S) and the Transformative Research in the Education Sciences Grants program (84.305T) with applications due August 17, 2023.
Through the Using Longitudinal Data to Support State Education Policymaking grant program, IES supports state agencies to use their state’s education longitudinal data systems (SLDS) to provide evidence for their own program and policy decisions and those of their local education agencies. Data from other sources may also be included to help address the state agency’s research questions. For FY 2024, the program will support research to identify and reduce opportunity and achievement gaps for learners from prekindergarten through adult education. State agencies may apply for these grants on their own or in collaboration with other organizations.
Through the Transformative Research program, IES seeks to support innovative research that has the potential to make dramatic advances towards solving seemingly intractable problems and challenges in the education field and/or to accelerate the pace of conducting education research to facilitate major breakthroughs. For FY 2024, the program will focus on accelerating learning and reducing persistent education inequities by leveraging evidence-based principles from the learning sciences coupled with advanced technology to create high-reward, scalable technology solutions.

IES will provide virtual office hours for this new competition. Please see the Digital Technical Assistance web page for additional details.
