Travel Grant Awards

The deadline to apply for a travel grant for the 2009 Annual Convention is one week from today, on September 12, 2008.

ISA Workshop Grants - Deadline Extended

The International Studies Association wishes to announce that the deadline for the receipt of completed Workshop Grant applications has been extended until July 31st, 2008.

ISA Workshop Grants support workshops for collaborative research that is new and innovative and involves scholars who are drawn from the global international studies community. Workshops will be held in conjunction with the 2009 ISA Annual Convention in New York City, NY, February 15-18. As a reminder, full information on the goals of the program and application guidelines are available on the workshop website.

Applicants are encouraged to submit proposals electronically to ISA via e-mail to: International Studies Association / isa@u.arizona.edu, using a PDF document format. The entire proposal must be contained in a single document file; please do not send multiple files containing various components of the proposal since these are difficult to manage. Proposals on paper are also accepted; please provide six (6) copies of all materials. The proposal, with all required accompanying materials, must be received by July 31, 2008. 

When you send the proposal to ISA, also send a complete copy to the committee chair (e-mail preferred):

Kate O’Neill, Chair
E-mail: koneill@nature.berkeley.edu

Regular mail:
Department of Environmental Science,
Policy and Management (ESPM)
University of California at Berkeley
207 Giannini Hall
Berkeley, CA 94720  USA

If you do not receive a confirmation within ten days (email) that your proposal was received, please contact the committee chair since there may have been problems transmitting the proposals. E-mail queries may also be sent to the Chair. Please use “ISA Workshop Grants” in the subject line. All applicants should expect to receive notification as to whether the proposal will be funded on or soon after September 2, 2008.
