Graduate Student Summer Research Grants

Attention Graduate and Doctoral Students:

The Program on Latin America and the Caribbean (PLACA) of the Daniel Patrick Moynihan Institute of Global Affairs, in the Maxwell School of Syracuse University, announces it will grant awards of up to $2,500 to graduate students to support summer field research for thesis or doctoral research projects in Latin America, the Caribbean and Iberia. Graduate students in Syracuse University or SUNY/ESF are eligible and encouraged to apply. The purpose of the award is to provide students the opportunity to gather preliminary data, make contacts, map topics, and increase competitiveness of future proposals for funding. The awards are competitive and proposals are judged on the basis of (i) quality of the proposed research, (ii) organization and thoughtfulness of the proposal, and (iii) appropriateness and feasibility of the research plan in relation to the student's background and qualifications.
