[Coehd] Funding opportunities reminder 7/25/2025

Greetings COEHD Colleagues, A number of faculty members have previously expressed interest in two notable funding opportunities that are now open. There are quickly approaching Declaration of Intent and Intent to Apply deadlines that we need to be mindful of. The 2025 Andrew Carnegie Fellows Program supports high-impact research in the humanities and social sciences, with a current focus on addressing political polarization in the U.S. UTSA may nominate up to two full proposals. Faculty interested must submit a Limited Submissions Declaration of Intent (DOI) by Tuesday, August 5, 2025, including a title, short abstract, and list of key personnel. Selected DOIs will proceed to the internal pre-proposal stage due August 26, with final submissions to the funder due by November 7. https://www.carnegie.org/awards/award/andrew-carnegie-fellows/ https://utsaresearch.infoready4.com/#competitionDetail/1970914 The Spencer Foundation Vision Grants offer $75,000 to support collaborative planning of large-scale, equity-focused research projects aimed at transforming educational systems. This is a planning grant, not a research implementation grant, and is a required precursor to applying for Spencer’s $3.5M Transformative Research Grant. Proposals must highlight intended systems change, interdisciplinary collaboration, and a clear path to real-world impact. The Intent to Apply form is due August 13, with full proposals due September 17. https://www.spencer.org/grant_types/vision-grants Please contact us if you intend to pursue either opportunity or have questions about next steps. --Iwan Mr. Iwan Notowidigdo Senior Grant Development Manager The University of Texas at San Antonio College of Education & Human Development (COEHD) iwan.notowidigdo(a)utsa.edu Mobile: 347-231-5931 [cid:691ac50e-286d-4562-ab63-d6a514eed56c]
