Kauffman Foundation Accepting Nominations for Junior Faculty Fellowship Grants to Support Research in Entrepreneurship
Deadline: January 23, 2012

The Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation is accepting nominations for the Kauffman Junior Faculty Fellowship in Entrepreneurship Research. The program is designed to recognize junior faculty who are beginning to establish a record of scholarship and exhibit the potential to make significant contributions to the body of research in the field of entrepreneurship.

The foundation will award up to seven fellowship grants to faculty members in the United States who are currently researching issues of theoretical and practical importance to the domain of entrepreneurship. Each fellow’s university will receive a grant of $40,000 over two years to support the research activities of the fellow.

Nominees must be tenured or tenure-track junior faculty members at accredited U.S. institutions of higher education and must have received a Ph.D. or equivalent doctoral degree between January 1, 2007, and December 31, 2010.

To be eligible, candidates must first be nominated and then be invited to complete an application. Multiple nominations are permitted by a single nominator, and universities may have multiple faculty members nominated for the fellowship. Self-nominations are not permitted.

For the complete call for nominations and the nomination form, visit the Kauffman Foundation Web site.
