Limited funding support is available for faculty and graduate students to attend summer program courses at the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) in Ann Arbor, MI.

Support will cover the registration fee. Faculty will have funding priority.

There are four types of courses: less than a week intensive, one week intensive, one month courses in the early summer, and one month courses in the late summer. The registration fee for courses ranges from $1,400 to $4,000. Details on the course offerings can be found at http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/training/summer/index.html .

You should apply for the courses directly to the ICPSR. If you want to apply for funding support from the CSU, send your request to Dr. Patricia Jennings at CSU East Bay. Email her at with a copy of your curriculum vitae and a 1-2 page statement indicating the ICPSR summer course(s) you wish to attend, and describing your current position and how your work will benefit from your participation. Include your name, mailing address, phone for days and evenings, and e-mail address. The deadline for receiving applications is March 2nd.

Dr. Jennings can also be contacted via phone at 510/885-3196.
