Borns Jewish Studies Program grants-in-aid of research. Grants are available for two categories: 1) funding for continuing MA students in the Borns Jewish Studies Program and 2) funding for research travel, accommodations while conducting research, language study, archival expenses, and other research-related expenses. Grants-in-aid will not cover per diem expenses of food. Preference will be given to Jewish Studies master's degree students and doctoral minors.

A grants-in-aid proposal must include:

  1. Amount of funds requested and for which semester(s) - [Summer 2023 and/or Fall 2023 and/or Spring 2024].
  2. Explanation of research project, language study, second year of M.A. support, or other project for which you are requesting funding (2-3 paragraphs)
  3. Indication of its role in your degree progress (1 paragraph)
