Federal Funding Opportunities
The purpose of this program is to promote postsecondary completion for students close to completion, whether for students currently enrolled in higher education, students who are no longer enrolled because of challenges they faced during the COVID-19 pandemic and close to completion, or both. Institutions may opt to supplement or expand evidence-based and data-driven activities to support retention and completion for both groups. This program aims to improve student outcomes, including retention, transfer, credit accumulation, and completion, by augmenting evidence-based activities that are already underway at eligible institutions of higher education.
The overall objective of the planned funding opportunity announcement is to solicit and award multiple Research and Development cooperative agreements to accelerate development of emissions mitigation technologies that enable an efficient, resilient and “leak tight” natural gas value chain. Projects will establish integrated networks of surface-based sensor technologies that enable timely monitoring of methane emissions across large areas and determine how to best apply methane emissions monitoring, measurement, and mitigation efforts across oil and natural gas producing regions. Projects will also deliver a well-defined plan for creating an “integrated methane monitoring platform” that will enable early detection and quantification of methane emissions along the natural gas supply chain. Finally, the funding opportunity announcement will seek projects designed to improve the accuracy of methane emissions estimates from upstream crude oil, condensate and produced water storage tanks as a function of their character, configuration, and operating conditions.
The purpose of the Geriatrics Academic Career Award (GACA) program is to support the career development of junior faculty as academic geriatricians or academic geriatrics specialists. The goals of the program are for the GACA candidate to: a) develop the necessary knowledge and skills to lead health care transformation in a variety of settings, including rural and/or medically underserved settings, b) be age-friendly, and c) provide training in clinical geriatrics, including the training of inter-professional teams of healthcare professionals to provide healthcare for older adults.
National Leadership Grants for Museums support projects that address critical needs of the museum field and that have the potential to advance practice in the profession to strengthen museum services for the American public.
The National Historical Publications and Records Commission, with funding provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, seeks proposals for its planning grant program for Collaborative Digital Editions in African American, Asian American, Hispanic American, and Native American History and Ethnic Studies. With an overarching goal to broaden participation in the production and publication of historical and scholarly digital editions, the program is designed:
- To provide opportunities that augment the preparation and training of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color new to the work of historical documentary editing, especially those currently working in history or related area and ethnic studies departments.
- To encourage the innovative and collaborative re-thinking of the historical and scholarly digital edition itself—how it is conceived, whose voices it centers, and for what purposes.
- To support planning activities essential for successful development of significant, innovative, and well-conceived digital edition projects rooted in African American, Asian American, Hispanic American, and Native American history and ethnic studies.
- To stimulate meaningful, mutually beneficial, and respectful collaborations that help to bridge longstanding institutional inequalities by promoting resource sharing and capacity building at all levels.
- To sustain projects that build meaningful community and user engagement into their plans.
National Endowment for the Humanities Collaborative Research applications due November 30, 2022
The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Division of Research Programs is accepting applications for the Collaborative Research program. This program supports groups of two or more scholars seeking to increase humanistic knowledge through convenings, manuscript preparation for collaborative publications, and the creation of scholarly digital projects. Projects must pursue significant research questions and lead to a tangible interpretive product. The collaborative work can be rooted in a single field of study or cross disciplines. NEH encourages collaboration with scholars working in the natural or social sciences, but projects must focus on humanistic content and employ humanistic methods.
The National Endowment for the Humanities Division of Research Programs is accepting applications for the Scholarly Editions and Scholarly Translations program. This program supports collaborative teams who are editing, annotating, and translating foundational humanities texts that are vital to scholarship but are currently inaccessible or only available in inadequate editions or translations. Typically, the texts are significant literary, philosophical, and historical materials, but works in other humanities fields may also be the subject of an edition.
The National Endowment for the Humanities Office of Digital Humanities is accepting applications for the Digital Humanities Advancement Grants program. The program supports innovative, experimental, and/or computationally challenging digital projects leading to work that can scale to enhance scholarly research, teaching, and public programming in the humanities.
