American Council of Learned Societies
Over the past five years, the American Council of Learned Societies has awarded nineteen research grants and fellowships to Barnard faculty in fourteen different departments. Impressive! From the website: “ACLS, a private, nonprofit federation of 75 national scholarly organizations, is the preeminent representative of American scholarship in the humanities and related social sciences. Advancing scholarship by awarding fellowships and strengthening relations among learned societies is central to our work. Other activities include support for scholarly conferences, reference works, and scholarly communication innovations.“ “Research. ACLS fellows and grantees are engaged in creating new knowledge that benefits our understanding of the world. ACLS continues to be the leading private institution supporting scholars across a variety of humanistic disciplines. In the 2016-17 competition year, ACLS will award more than $20 million to over 325 scholars worldwide. ACLS’s fellowship and grant competitions provide a range of opportunities for scholars at all career stages (from graduate students to distinguished professors to independent scholars) working with varied disciplines and methodologies in the US and abroad. Major international initiatives include the African Humanities Program, the Center for Educational Exchange with Viet Nam, and The Robert H. N. Ho Family Foundation Program In Buddhist Studies global competitions.” This newsletter has profiled some of these individual opportunities in the past. “Innovation. ACLS has long supported new methods and subjects of humanities scholarship. New fellowship programs address digital humanities, collaborative research, and scholars at work outside the academy. Recent initiatives on scholarly communication include Humanities E-Book, and sponsored publications such as the American National Biography and the Darwin Correspondence Project.”
“For the purpose of these competitions, the humanities and related social sciences include but are not limited to American studies; anthropology; archaeology; art history and architectural history; classics; economics; ethnic studies; film; gender studies; geography; history; languages and literatures; legal studies; linguistics; musicology; philosophy; political science; psychology; religious studies; rhetoric, communication, and media studies; science and technology studies; sociology; and theater, dance, and performance studies.” “However, proposals in the social science fields listed above are eligible only if they employ predominantly humanistic approaches and qualitative/interpretive methodologies (e.g., economic history, law and literature, political philosophy, history of psychology). Proposals in interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary humanities and related social sciences are welcome, and most programs do not restrict the focus of research to any geographic region or to any cultural or linguistic group of study.”

The program is a grant competition promoting scholarship on issues related to access, affordability and value of legal education specifically, and graduate and professional education more broadly. Preference is given to proposals that utilize regional, national, or multi-institutional datasets, although research that focuses on a single institution is acceptable. Preference is also given to proposals that specifically address legal education; however, proposals that study access, affordability and value of graduate and professional education more generally are also encouraged. Researchers may analyze pre-existing data or include the construction of a new dataset in their proposal. Membership to AccessLex Institute or AIR is not required for grant eligibility.” Faculty, practitioners, and scholars are eligible for grants up to $50,000. <<more>> American Sociological Association Fund for the Advancement of the Discipline Deadline: December 15, 2017 “The American Sociological Association (ASA) invites submissions for the Fund for the Advancement of the Discipline (FAD) awards.

FAD awards provide scholars with “seed money" for innovative research that has the potential for challenging the discipline, stimulating new lines of research, and creating new networks of scientific collaboration. The award is intended to provide opportunities for substantive and methodological breakthroughs, broaden the dissemination of scientific knowledge, and provide leverage for acquisition of additional research funds.” <<more>>
