Addendum to the IRSA Awards
Dear Colleagues, A while ago, we circulated the call for the 2012
Immigration Research Summer Awards (IRSA). For the purpose of facilitating the application
process, we are expanding the funding criteria. IRSA Awards can be now used for
summer salary OR for research expenses, including paying stipends to research
assistants or to postgraduate researchers. For grantees choosing a summer stipend, payments
for the total amount of the award will be made at the beginning of the award
period. For grantees opting to pay for research expenses, including stipends
for graduate students, the release of funds will be made upon payment requests
for completed services. Awards will range between US $ 3,000 and US $ 4,000. An updated RFP, including additional clarifications
regarding the program’s scope and eligibility criteria, is attached to this
message. For additional questions, please contact Anahi Viladrich (anahi.viladrich@qc.cuny.edu)
