CEAS Faculty Travel Grant
CEAS is pleased to offer travel grants to our affiliated faculty members for 2025-2026. Each grant is for up to $1000 in support and must be used for a presentation related to East Asia in an academic conference during 2/15/2025-8/14/2026. Our goal in providing these funds is to strengthen and promote the research and teaching of East Asia here at The University of Arizona.
Our requirement is that your presentation is related to these world regions: mainland China, Japan, South Korea, North Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, Mongolia, and the Himalayan region. Once we receive your application, a review committee will be formed to review the application.
The deadline for application is 1/15/2025. If you have any questions, please contact: eas-center@arizona.edu
Please note that the recipients of the last round are not eligible to apply. Priority will be given to first-time applicants.
A separate grant only for LANGUAGE FACULTY is also available.
