CEAPS Affiliated Faculty Conference Travel Grant (Fall 2023 Deadline: October 15, 2023)

The CEAPS Affiliated Faculty Conference Travel Grant is open to any CEAPS affiliated faculty from all departments and colleges. You must be a current faculty affiliate and have a paper with a strong East Asian and Pacific Studies focus accepted in a conference to apply. Preference will be given to conference presentations at national and international conferences. While this travel grant is primarily designed for conference travel, the CEAPS Advisory Board will consider requests for travel support to conduct research in East Asia, Southeast Asia, and the greater Pacific region. Priority will be given to those proposals that concern East Asian and Pacific issues. A project report (up to 500 words) summarizing research findings will be required for research travel grantees.
