We provide support for full East Asian Studies Center faculty members.
We currently offer the following funding opportunites for full faculty members:
**Due to COVID, submissions are currently closed. We hope to offer this opportunity again for Fall 2021, so please stay tuned. ***
We are very pleased to announce that the East Asian Studies Center is now accepting applications from full members for its conference/research travel award competition. This funding is now possible since EASC was able to secure Title VI NRC funding for the years 2018-2022. Priority is given to faculty members who are conducting field research, or are involved in a scholarly conference. The maximum award amount is $1,000. The application deadline is Monday February 10th, 2020.
Also, note that due to Title VI funding regulations there are some restrictions on the use of an EASC conference travel award for international travel. International travel can be covered but must be approved 6 weeks in advance of the departure date and most likely will require travel on U.S.-owned carriers in order to comply with the Fly America Act (there are some exceptions that involve transfers between carriers at international locations). If planning an overseas trip, please contact Theresa Kang at kang43@indiana.edu at least 6 weeks before the departure date or at your earliest convenience.
Please note that these awards are available only to full EASC members.
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. **
