Limited 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.
The ICPSR provides the CSU with $3,000 to be distributed to faculty and graduate students who are interested in attending courses. 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 one-week courses is about $850 to $1,200. Details on the course offerings can be found at http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/training/summer/index.html .
You should apply directly to the ICPSR. If you want to apply for travel support from the CSU, send your request to Dr. Kathy Naff at San Francisco State University. Email her at with 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 April 17.
Dr, Naff can also be contacted via phone at 415/817-4459.Last updated: March 12, 2008.
