NEH Summer Stipends Concept Paper - Deadline: August 23

NEH Summer Stipends Concept Paper – 2013 Competition

CSU, Chico may nominate two faculty members for the 2013 NEH competition, which awards a stipend of $6,000.  To be considered for nomination, please prepare a concept paper not exceeding three single-spaced pages (1,785 words) and submit four copies to Research and Sponsored Programs (RESP) at 25 Main Street no later than 9 a.m. on August 23, 2013.  Proposal guidelines from NEH are available here.

Concept papers will be reviewed and ranked by the Proposal Review Committee of the University’s Faculty Recognition and Support Committee (FRAS). FRAS will recommend two CSU, Chico finalists.  Finalists will be notified on or around August 30. Proposals to NEH are due September 26, 2013.

NEH requires applicants to submit their own proposals. However, it is RESP’s responsibility to route the proposals for campus approvals before submission. If FRAS selects your concept paper, please provide RESP with your final narrative, a bibliography, a resume, and an appendix (if required) at least one week before the deadline.  RESP will route the proposal for approvals and assist with submission if requested to do so. Please contact Julie Jessen, x6627with any questions.
