Topic: Spencer Foundation Major Research Grants
Primary Sponsor: Spencer Foundation, The (IL)

The Foundation’s Major Research Grants Program supports research projects requiring more than $35,000. Research projects vary widely, ranging from medium-sized studies that can be completed within a year by an individual researcher to more extensive collaborative studies that last several years. At the time of this report’s publication, the Foundation has not established funding priorities for subjects of research; projects originate from research ideas initiated in the field by scholars and other researchers. Ordinarily, principal investigators applying for a Major Research Grant must be affiliated with a school district, a college or university, a research facility, or a cultural institution. Researchers must also have an earned doctorate in an academic discipline or professional field or appropriate experience in the teaching profession.
