Description:

The Russell Sage Foundation's program on the Future of Work supports innovative research on the causes and consequences of changes in the quality of jobs for less- and moderately-skilled workers and their families. We seek investigator-initiated research proposals that will broaden our understanding of the role of changes in employer practices, the nature of the labor market and public policies on the employment, earnings, and the quality of jobs of workers. We are especially interested in proposals that address important questions about the interplay of market and non-market forces in shaping the wellbeing of workers, today and in the future.

All applicants (both PIs and Co-PIs) must have a Ph.D. or comparable terminal degree, or a strong career background that establishes their ability to conduct high-level, peer-reviewed scholarly research. RSF particularly encourages early career scholars to apply for Presidential grants. All nationalities are eligible to apply and applicants do not have to reside in the U.S. RSF does not accept applications for Project and Presidential Grants from doctoral or other graduate students, unless specified in a special RFP. Please review the sponsor guidelines for full details. Please use the Letter of Intent option when starting your New ROLA Proposal.

Application Details:

All applications for external grants must be preceded by a brief letter of inquiry (No more than 4 pages, excluding references, single-spaced, with standard 11 or 12-point font, and 1 inch margins) to determine whether the Foundation's present interests and funds permit consideration of a proposal for research.

Applications must be submitted through the on line portal here: https://rsf.onlineapplicationportal.com/ Successful letters of intent will be invited to submit full applications.

15% INDIRECT COSTS MUST BE INCLUDED IN YOUR BUDGET
