Grants

VCL Scholars Grant

The VCL Scholars serve as an integral part of the Vanderbilt Center for Languages’ mission of fostering interdisciplinary work. Applicants may propose a program of research for publication, conference presentation, or the creation of a new academic initiative. The Vanderbilt Center for Languages is particularly interested in funding proposals that generate knowledge that benefits a broad constituency.

Proposals are due in the Spring. Awardees will present the results of their work in a public forum hosted by the Vanderbilt Center for Languages in a 20-minute illustrated talk in the Fall semester.

Rapid-Advancement MicroGrant Program (RAMP)

RAMP awards are designed for smaller-scale funding opportunities that require a rapid response, allowing faculty to innovate in the moment and to seize strategic and time-sensitive opportunities as they arise.

This program provides support ranging from $500 to $5,000 as the budget allows, with smaller requests encouraged. Larger funding amounts are considered if the proposal warrants and program budget allows.
