Faculty Grant Opportunity: INCITE Research Grants for Columbia’s Global Centers

Submission Deadline March 15, 2013

Seed Grant Program Objectives

INCITE, in conjunction with the Office of the Global Centers, is pleased to issue its second request for seed grant proposals to Columbia Faculty working with Columbia’s new network of Global Centers and the local and regional partners of those Centers.  Through this request for proposals, INCITE seeks to leverage Columbia’s diverse intellectual capacities and resources to build a vibrant and sustainable global research program, and facilitate the emergence of Columbia as a global university.  The INCITE Global Centers Research Grant program has four closely-related goals:

• To support substantive, innovative, interdisciplinary social science research at the Centers;
• To strengthen the research infrastructure of the Global Centers;
• To improve our collective understanding of critical issues that unite the diverse Global Centers; and
• To enable faculty to produce compelling, well-crafted proposals for external funding.
