Applications call for Short-Term Research Publication Grants 2020

The Short-Term Research Publication Grants provide support to scholars to prepare research manuscripts for publication. Preference will be given to applicants whose work supports the vision of AAUW: to break through educational and economic barriers so that all women have a fair chance.

Time must be available for eight consecutive weeks of final writing and editing in response to issues raised in critical reviews. These grants can be awarded to both tenure-track and part-time faculty, and to new and established researchers. The grants are designed to assist the candidate in obtaining tenure and other promotions. Tenured professors are not eligible.

Award and Benefits

$6,000 is available for an eight-week grant period. American Short-Term Research Publication Grants funds are available for:

  • Living expenses.
  • Clerical and technical support.
  • Research assistance related to verification (not basic research).
  • Office supplies, postage, copying, and related expenses.
  • Dependent child care.
  • Journal fees.

Eligibilities

  • American Fellowships are not open to previous recipients of any AAUW national fellowship or grant (not including branch or local awards or Community Action Grants).
  • Members of the AAUW Board of Directors, committees, panels, task forces and staff, including current interns, are not eligible to apply for AAUW’s fellowships and grants. A person holding a current award is eligible for election or appointment to boards, committees, panels, and task forces.
  • American Fellowship candidates must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents.
  • American Fellowships are open to scholars who identify as women in all fields of study.
  • Short-Term Research Publication Grants applicants must hold a Ph.D., Ed.D., D.B.A., M.F.A., J.D., M.D., D.M.D., D.V.M., D.S.W., or M.P.H. at the time of application.
  • Tenured professors are not eligible.
  • The grants are for tenure-track, part-time, and temporary faculty, as well as new and established researchers at universities.
  • Scholars with strong publication records should seek funding elsewhere.
  • Time must be available for eight consecutive weeks of final manuscript preparation. While many recipients, especially full-time faculty members, will use the awards during the summer, recipients may use the funds at any time during the fellowship year.
  • All applicants must demonstrate that the support will result in a reduction of their ongoing work-related activities.
  • The grants are not for preliminary research. Activities undertaken during the grant period can include drafting, editing, or modifying manuscripts; replicating research components; responding to issues raised through critical review; other initiatives to increase the likelihood of publication.
  • The publication must be original and cannot be co-authored.
  • Applicants may not apply for another AAUW national fellowship or grant in the same year.
