2011 Research Cluster Grants

KIAS is excited to announce the winners of the first cycle for the Research Cluster Grants. These grants will investigate and promote important research ideas, working in the KIAS established themes. The outcome of these grants will be interdisciplinary and thought-provoking work, which will be accessible to the university community and the public alike.

These grants advance the KIAS vision of interdisciplinary and comparative research, consistent with the high humanitarian ideals of the institute's benefactors, Drs. Peter and Doris Kule. They are committed to the study of major issues present in the global community and will impact research, social viewpoints, and policies as they develop and evolve. 

The grant winners will be able to utilize the innovative Kule Dialogues program, which focuses on dissemination and outreach to the various publics that KIAS is a part of. The program will provide the award winners with additional funding to get the word out about their research and to involve a variety of groups in the work that they are conducting. Information about the Kule Dialogues events and activities will be available on our website as they present themselves.
