Faculty Curator
Grants
October 28, 2008
Dear All,
I am writing from the Center for the Study
of Women (CSW) to remind you of the approaching deadline for the Faculty Curator
Grants. CSW seeks applications from faculty interested in proposing a
programming concentration for the Fall or Winter quarters of the 2009-2010
academic year.
CSW will award from $3000 to $5000 per
quarter to fund up to three presentations by outside speakers whose work
pertains to the proposed programming concentration. Award monies will be used
for direct costs associated with bringing in outside speakers (honoraria,
travel, lodging, receptions). While those awarded faculty curatorships will be
responsible for selecting the potential speakers, all other logistics of the
speaker's campus visit will be arranged by CSW staff. One project will be
funded per quarter.
CSW welcomes proposals from formal or
informal research groups or from faculty who wish to coordinate a lecture
series or workshop with a department or other research center. These faculty
or faculty groups will serve as guest curators for the Center’s primary
programming for one quarter.
To apply, please visit our website at http://www.csw.ucla.edu/faculty_funding.html
and follow the detailed guidelines to complete the required application
materials. I encourage all qualified UCLA faculty to apply.
Please submit completed applications to [log in to unmask] by December
18, 2008 at 5:30 pm.
All the very best,
Kathleen McHugh
