Faculty Opportunities Listing

The Center has a longstanding commitment to support analytical research, principally in the social sciences in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and in related disciplines in the University’s professional schools. This research focuses on international, transnational, global, and comparative topics. Eligible projects may address contemporary or historical topics, including rigorous policy analysis. Among our successful recent initiatives are:

• an opportunity for every junior Faculty Associate to hold a book conference on a soon-to-be-published manuscript;
• the Research Incubation Fund, which supports faculty in their preparation of major research proposals for outside funding agencies or foundations;
• an emphasis on utilizing media conferencing to lower financial cost; and
• to enable scholars from outside of North America and to participate in Center conferences.

In these and our more traditional ways, the Center continues to invite the generation of new ideas and to encourage discussions within and across scholarly disciplines. The Weatherhead Center supports research that deepens the understanding of the forces, both domestic and international, that are transforming many countries as well as the international system. Our goal is to foster a vibrant research community of Weatherhead Center-affiliated faculty across the University.
