Call for Applicants: NSF Dissertation Improvement Grant Changes

Received via e-mail:  

Dear Colleagues,
Please note that the Political Science Program at the National Science Foundation has updated award information for Doctoral Dissertation Research Improvement Grants. You will find a description of the grants on the program's website (http://www.nsf.gov/sbe/ses/polisci/ddrip1.jsp).
The most notable change is that the maximum award amount is now $14,000 plus indirect costs. Total awards with indirect costs may exceed that amount. The changes do not apply to proposals submitted for the September 16, 2011 deadline, but will apply to proposals submitted by January 15, 2012 and beyond.
