Association for Social Economics (ASE) is now accepting applications for the William R. Waters Research Grant Program. The purpose of the William R.

The William R. Waters Research Grant was established in 1999 in honor of William R. Waters, editor of the Review of Social Economy for many years and President of ASE in 1987.  The grant was first awarded for Summer, 2000.

Grant

The Association of Social Economics offers a research grant in the amount of up to $5,000 to promote research in social economics and the social economy.

The grant will be disbursed in January, and is intended to support research undertaken in 2018. The grant can be very beneficial to scholars beginning their career.

  • Applicants for the Waters grant must be graduate students in PhD programs who have not yet completed their dissertation, or faculty members (tenured or untenured) below the rank of Associate Professor (or its equivalent outside the U.S.).
