The American Journalism Historians Association seeks applications for its annual Research Grant Awards. The deadline is May 15, 2014. Up to four winners will be announced at the convention in St. Paul Oct. 9-11, 2014. The Research Grant Award is designed to provide research assistance and to recognize and reward the winners. Up to four grants per year for up to $1,250 each will be awarded upon review and recommendation of the Research Grant Committee. All current AJHA full members with a minimum of three years’ membership at the time of application are eligible. Members may apply for an AJHA research grant only once every five years. The research project must be related to mass media history. Awardees are expected to continue their membership through the grant period. Members must complete an application form (available at www.ajahaonline.org) and provide a one- to three-page prospectus/overview of the project, including a budget that should include a listing of amount and sources of other support (if appropriate) with timelines and expected outlets for the research.
