*New* RSF Dissertation Research Grants (due 2/4/25)

Posted: 12/19/2024 ()

The Dissertation Research Grants program supports innovative and high-quality dissertation research that addresses questions relevant to any of RSF’s priority areas: Behavioral Science and Decision Making in Context; Future of Work; Race, Ethnicity, and Immigration; Immigration and Immigrant Integration; and Social, Political, and Economic Inequality. Proposed projects must be closely aligned with the funding priorities listed on the RSF website, contribute to RSF’s mission to improve social and living conditions in the U.S., and demonstrate appropriate use of relevant theory, innovative data, rigorous research methods, and measures. Applicants must be enrolled doctoral students at institutions of higher education in the U.S. or a U.S. territory, who have completed all program requirements except the dissertation. Some grants will be co-funded with The Policy Academies and the W.E. Upjohn Institute for Employment Research. The proposal deadline is February 4, 2025, for funding starting in September 2025.

RSF staff will discuss the Dissertation Research Grants application process at a webinar on January 7, 2025, at 2PM ET. Register for the webinar here.
