Grants: American Philosophical Society’s Franklin Research Grants, deadline 1 October and 1 December 2024

The American Philosophical Society’s Franklin Research Grants support the cost of research leading to publication in all areas of knowledge. The Franklin program is particularly designed to help meet the costs of travel to libraries and archives for research purposes; the purchase of microfilm, photocopies, or equivalent research materials; the costs associated with fieldwork; or laboratory research expenses. Special programs exist with the British Academy, the Institute for Advanced Study in the Humanities, and the British Library.


Eligibility: Applicants are expected to have a doctorate or to have published work of doctoral character and quality. Ph.D. candidates are not eligible to apply, but the Society is especially interested in supporting the work of young scholars who have recently received the doctorate.

Award: From $1,000 to $6,500.

Deadlines: October 1, December 1; notification in January and March.Web: https://www.amphilsoc.org/grants/franklin-research-grants (for information and access to the application portal)
