Faculty Summer Grant Program

The Berger Institute faculty summer research grants support and encourage faculty summer research on projects related to issues of work and family. Berger Institute faculty summer research grants will include a limited number of awards in the amount of $4,000 each with additional funding for student research assistants of $3,000 each. Student research assistants should be employed in meaningful and valuable roles in the research agenda.

The awarded faculty members are required to provide a short report of their summer scholarly activities at the beginning of the fall semester, submit a 500-1000 word article of their summer scholarly activity to be published in the Berger Institute Newsletter in the spring semester (the newsletter article may be written by the faculty fellow or in collaboration with the student research assistant), and the completed research paper will also become a part of the Berger Institute Working Paper series posted on the Berger Institute website.
