#### **About the Faculty Grant Competition** The Center’s Faculty Grants are for one year, and are intended to generate new knowledge and networks, facilitate the exchange of discoveries, accelerate the identification of key challenges, and expand the methods scholars use. The Center is interested in supporting work by early-career faculty, and projects involving collaboration across schools and departments.
Awards are anticipated to range from $10,000 to $60,000. Learn more about the 2025-26 CPE faculty grant recipients and their research projects here. This round of grants will support work that aligns with the Center’s five Idea Labs or the cross-cutting theme of Political Economy and Democracy.
