We provide support for East Asian Studies Center faculty members.
We currently offer the following funding opportunities for full faculty members:
We are very pleased to announce that the East Asian Studies Center is once again accepting applications from full members for its conference/research travel award competition.
- Priority is given to faculty members who are conducting field research or are involved in a scholarly conference, as well as faculty who do not have funds in the form of research accounts etc (please indicate this on the application form).
- Applying for these and other travel funds strengthens the EASC Conference Travel Award application.
- The maximum award amount is up to $1,000, depending on number of applications.
- We will also consider applications for travel that occurred prior to the deadline. Thus, people who have already attended an early-semester conference will still be eligible for support.
Please note that these awards are available only to full EASC members. Applicants are eligible to apply once during the fall cycle and once again during the spring cycle, each academic year.
Application Deadline:
- Friday, September 13, 2024
Application materials include:
- One-page abstract of your paper or field research (in English)
- Notice of acceptance or copy of the conference program (not required for field research)
** All materials to be uploaded via the Application form. **
