Research Grants on Education: Large
The Large Research Grants on Education Program supports education research
projects that will contribute to the improvement of education, broadly conceived,
with budgets ranging from $125,000 to $500,000 for projects ranging from one to
five years. We accept Intent to Apply forms twice a year.
This program is “field-initiated” in that proposal submissions are not in response to
a specific request for a particular research topic, discipline, design, method, or
location. Our goal for this program is to support rigorous, intellectually ambitious
and technically sound research that is relevant to the most pressing questions
and compelling opportunities in education.
