The Civic Engagement and Public Policy research initiative has
established two fellowship programs to help advance and support
community-based research by members of UB faculty on issues of
social justice and public policy.
The Civic Engagement Research Fellowship Program provides three
fellowship opportunities for UB faculty members to advance their
community-based research and engaged scholarship that address
social and policy challenges. Community-based research requires
collaboration with an external partner, and will confront issues
whose scope ranges from the local to the global.
The fellowship with the broadest scope is the Civic Engagement
Research Fellowship, which now requires applications in the spring
semester for the following academic year. The two newest
fellowships, established in 2012-13, are more narrowly focused --
for Grant Development and for Research Dissemination -- and
applications are sought in the fall semester.
- Civic Engagement Research Fellowship Applications for
2013-14 due spring 2013
- Civic Engagement Research Fellowship for Grant
Development
Civic Engagement Research Dissemination Fellowship
All fellowships are available to full-time UB faculty
members.
The Community Scholar-in-Residence Fellowship program provides
an opportunity for members of UB faculty to work closely on campus
with a community research partner from outside academia. Faculty
members submit nominations for a Community Scholar to collaborate
on a community-based research project and/or grant activities.
