Small Research Grants Program

Deadline: None

Agency: Spencer Foundation

Title: Small Research Grants Program

Purpose: The Foundation’s Small Research Grants Program supports short-term research projects (two years or less) that require no more than $35,000 to complete. It offers a unique opportunity for scholars and practitioners in a broad range of institutions who are interested in educational research to obtain support for their work. The program is appropriate for modest-sized research projects, exploratory studies, specific phases of larger investigations, and projects that arise in response to unusual opportunities. The Small Research Grants Program encourages researchers with diverse perspectives to develop ideas and approaches that extend the conventional boundaries of a research question, area, or method. The program supports individual efforts as well as collaborations. There are no deadlines for this program.
