Grant Overview
Defining Education Research in Buddhist Studies Fellowship Eligibility ## Understanding the Scope and Boundaries of the Grant The Fellowship for Research and Writing in Buddhist Studies for Pre-Tenure Scholars who Hold the PhD Degree is a prestigious grant that supports scholarly research in the field of Buddhist studies. To be eligible, applicants must hold a PhD degree and be pre-tenure scholars teaching full-time. The fellowship provides up to $70,000 to allow recipients to concentrate on their research and writing projects without the burden of teaching and other responsibilities. The scope of this grant is limited to research and writing projects in Buddhist studies, and applicants must clearly outline their proposed project and its significance in the field. Concrete use cases for this grant include research projects that explore the historical development of Buddhist thought, the cultural transmission of Buddhist practices, or the contemporary relevance of Buddhist teachings. Applicants should be aware that this grant is not intended to support other areas of education research, such as graduate education scholarships or study abroad programs, which are covered under other grant programs. For instance, the Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (FSEOG) program is a different funding opportunity that supports undergraduate students with financial need. The Higher Education Act and the regulations governing the FSEOG program, such as the requirement that institutions maintain a certain level of funding for the program, demonstrate the complexity of the regulatory environment surrounding education grants. One concrete regulation that applies to this sector is the requirement that institutions comply with the Institutional Eligibility and Program Integrity rules under the Higher Education Act, which includes maintaining accreditation from a recognized accrediting agency. ## Navigating the Challenges of Delivering Education Research Projects Delivering a successful research project under this fellowship requires careful planning and management. One verifiable delivery challenge unique to this sector is the need to access and analyze rare or obscure Buddhist texts and manuscripts, which may be located in remote or inaccessible locations. Applicants should be prepared to demonstrate their ability to overcome this challenge through their research plan and budget. The workflow for this project will involve conducting literature reviews, analyzing texts and data, and writing and revising the research paper. Staffing requirements will typically involve the fellow themselves, with potentially some support from research assistants or librarians. Resource requirements may include access to specialized databases, travel to research libraries or archives, and equipment such as laptops or scanners. Q: How does the fellowship committee determine the priority of research projects in Buddhist studies? A: The committee considers the scholarly merit and significance of the proposed project, as well as the applicant's qualifications and potential for future research in the field. Q: Can I use the fellowship funds to support my graduate students or research assistants? A: While the fellowship is intended to support the research and writing of the fellow, some expenses related to research assistance may be allowable, but this should be clearly justified in the budget and may require approval from the funder. Q: Are there any restrictions on the publication or dissemination of research results from the fellowship? A: The funder encourages fellows to publish their research in reputable academic venues, but may have some requirements or restrictions related to acknowledgment of the funding support.
