3CT Graduate Student Fund 2024–25

University of Chicago graduate students are invited to apply for grants of up to $1,000 to support work that reflects 3CT’s commitment to theorizing the present.

This opportunity is open to students who will be enrolled at the University of Chicago in a PhD or MA program during the 2024–25 academic year. Priority will be given to projects that add to the intellectual life of 3CT, that might have difficulty accessing funding elsewhere, and/or for which 3CT’s grant would make a significant contribution to the budget.

Expenses must be incurred between July 1, 2024, and May 15, 2025, and funds may be used for activities such as:

• Collaborative, interdisciplinary initiatives involving other students such as reading groups, study groups, teach-ins, or similar
• Conference travel and fees
• Research-related costs, such as travel; transcription, translation, or duplication fees; purchase of books or software

Applications should include a description of your project and how it engages with questions of contemporary theory (max. two single-spaced pages); a budget, including details of other funding (confirmed or pending); and a CV.

Upload proposals as a single PDF here.

Deadline: Monday, May 13, 2024, 11:59pm CT

Please contact Anna Searle Jones, 3CT’s associate director, with any questions or to discuss your application ahead of the deadline.
