CLOSUP UM Faculty Funding Opportunities
As part of its mission to help focus the University of Michigan's academic resources on issues of state, local, and urban public policy, CLOSUP provides financial support to University of Michigan faculty for policy-relevant research and outreach activities, through the CLOSUP Policy Research Grants Program (PRG). (Note: as of December 2006, the PRG replaced two former CLOSUP funding programs, the Major Projects Program and the Small Grants Program.) The regular PRG program accepts proposals throughout the year. See below for more information on the regular PRG progam, including forms, program overviews, guidelines and prior awards.
Researchers who are interested in submitting a proposal to the PRG program are strongly encouraged to contact CLOSUP as a first step to inquire about availability of funds and the likelihood of fit between the proposal and the PRG program objectives.
