[cmath] Call for Proposals & Funding Opportunities: Thematic and Focus Programs in 2019 and Beyond

[Peter Herriman]

Call for Proposals & Funding Opportunities 

---------------------------------------------------------

The Fields Institute is pleased to announce that applications are now being
solicited for new thematic and focus programs beginning in 2019.
Instructions, guidelines and application forms, as well as details about
other funding opportunities, are available on the Fields webpage. 

 

Proposals for Thematic and Focus Programs in 2019 and Beyond

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------

Guidelines for preparation and submission of proposals for thematic and
focus programs at the Fields Institute. They are also found here:
http://www.fields.utoronto.ca/resources/thematic-and-focus-program-proposals


 

Deadlines 

-------------

Deadlines for submission of proposals or letters of intent for thematic and
focus program are March 15 and September 15 of each year, to allow for
external reviews before consideration by our Scientific Advisory Panel,
which meets in May and November.  Decisions are normally announced by early
June or December of each year. A complete proposal or letter of intent
should be sent to proposals at fields.utoronto.ca
<mailto:proposals at fields.utoronto.ca>   Online submission will be available
in the near future.

 

Proposals for Major Thematic Programs 

-----------------------------------------------------

Major thematic programs of 4 or 6 months duration are the Institute's
flagship activities. Organizers of major thematic programs are advised that
a substantial lead time (up to two years) is recommended, and are encouraged
to submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) of 3 to 5 pages in length prior to
preparing a complete proposal. The purpose of an LOI is to allow the Fields
Institute to provide feedback before organizers do the considerable work
needed to prepare a detailed proposal.   Complete proposals for major
thematic programs are typically 15-20 pages.

 

Proposals for Short Thematic or Focus Program

---------------------------------------------------------------

Short thematic or focus programs of 1 or 2 months duration provide a
flexible and relatively rapid way to organize activities in areas of current
research interest in the mathematical sciences. The Fields Institute
particularly encourages summer programs of an interdisciplinary nature.
Organizers of short thematic and focus programs are advised that a lead time
of at least 18 months is recommended. An LOI is not normally needed, but can
be considered prior to submission of a complete proposal.
