The IPRH invites submissions requesting co-sponsorship support to meet one established deadline per semester (fall: September 24; spring: March 10). These deadlines will enable the IPRH to consider all requests for support on a competitive basis, and to determine how to most effectively allocate our co-sponsorship resources in a time of limited funding.
The average amount that the IPRH will contribute to an event is $100. In addition, we can support a limited number of conferences/symposia in amounts up to $500. Proposals for conference support must be submitted by the deadline dates in order to receive consideration. Proposals for non-conference events will be accepted outside of deadline periods under special circumstances, but funding will be contingent upon availability.
Requests for support should include the following:
- A brief but specific outline of the proposed event, including dates and one-paragraph speaker biographies where appropriate
- An outline of the proposed budget for the event, including any funding commitments that have already been secured
The IPRH does NOT provide financial support for the following:
- Events sponsored by current IPRH Reading Groups
- Events sponsored by registered student organizations
- Events that take place less than three weeks from the date of application for support
Send all requests for support via e-mail to Christine Catanzarite (catanzar@uiuc.edu), or by campus mail to: IPRH, 805 West Pennsylvania Ave., MC-057. Notification of support will be sent to all applicants within one week of the deadline date. |
