Faculty Curator Grants

Applications due by Thursday, April 4, 2013, at 12 noon

The UCLA Center for the Study of Women is accepting applications for the CSW Faculty Curator Grants.  

CSW seeks applications from faculty interested in proposing a programming concentration for the Fall or Winter

quarters of the 2013-2014 academic year.  

The Faculty Curator program is a competitive grant for UCLA faculty that provides a maximum of $3000 to fund up to three presentations by outside speakers whose work pertains to the award recipient’s proposed concentration. A Faculty Curator ensures that the proposed theme and speakers reflect the interests of a UCLA-based research or constituency group. CSW builds its lecture program for the Fall or Winter academic quarters around the selected rosters of speakers. The Faculty Curator program allows CSW public programming to more closely align with faculty research in various stages of development. This program also forges closer intellectual connections between UCLA faculty and scholars invited to speak at the CSW. To this end, the model is to have series speakers give a lecture and participate in a workshop with UCLA faculty and graduate students.   

Faculty applying for a Curatorship must represent a formal or informal research group of UCLA faculty or be

interested in coordinating a lecture series or workshop with another department or research center or group.  

These faculty or faculty groups will serve as guest curators for the Center’s primary programming for one quarter.  

Award monies will be used for direct costs associated with bringing in outside speakers. While those awarded faculty curatorships will be responsible for selecting potential speakers, all other logistics of the speaker's campus visit will be arranged by CSW staff.
