The Spencer Foundation is seeking applications for its Large Research
Grants on Education Program to support education research projects that
will contribute to the improvement of education, broadly conceived.
The
goal for this program is to support rigorous, intellectually ambitious
and technically sound research that is relevant to the most pressing
questions and compelling opportunities in education. They seek to
support scholarship that develops new foundational knowledge that may
have a lasting impact on educational discourse.
This program is “field-initiated” in that proposal
submissions are not in response to a specific request for a particular
research topic, discipline, design, method, or location.

Research Grant on Education must have an earned doctorate in an academic
discipline or professional field, or appropriate experience in an
