The AIS Mentorship Committee is pleased to announce a new graduate student workshop/research award. Interested students should submit a brief proposal; the requested amount of funding and an overall budget; as well as a letter confirming acceptance to a workshop or a comparable academic research venue for participation. Demonstrated financial need will be prioritized. A letter from an advisor is also required and should speak to the relevance of the workshop to the student’s research and financial need.
How to apply
Deadlines will be September 15th and February 15th annually. We are allotting $6,000 a year, which will be split evenly for the two cycles. Each award will be worth up to $1,000. Following the completion of the workshop/research, awardees will be asked to submit a brief report highlighting their work and the ways in which the award assisted them. Applications should be sent to: mentorship@associationforiranianstudies.org
Deadline: September 15, 2023
