Every week, Perspectives Daily showcases a new grant, fellowship, or scholarship that has been posted to our free community calendar. This week we are featuring the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics 2019 Travel Grants.

Criteria

Established in 2010, these funding programs award grants to scholars engaged in projects studying Congress, politics, or policy issues. The Robert and Elizabeth Dole Archive and Special Collections at the Dole Institute of Politics houses Senator Bob Dole's extensive collections that document his 36-year career in the House and Senate. While in residence, the Research Fellow and travel grant awardees will use these collections, which encompass a wide range of legislative, historical, and policy issues.

Amount

The travel grant program is intended to defray costs associated with research-related travel to the Dole Institute. This program offers reimbursements of up to $750 to undergraduate and graduate students, post-doctoral researchers, and independent scholars.  2019 awards may be used after July 1, 2019.

Recipients will be required to submit a final copy of any projects produced through the travel grant as well as submitting to the Dole Institute a 500-1000 word statement describing the research conducted here that will be used by the Dole Institute.
