In 2015, the RSA Board agreed to introduce RSA Fellowship and Members Research Grants (FeRSA and MeRSA) to the Association’s activity portfolio to support the research of established researchers and long-term RSA members.

 

Through the Grant Schemes the Association seeks to enable its members to undertake a piece of regional research and to assist with ensuring its contribution to regional understanding. All applicants are required to set out their dissemination plans not only through academic networks (e.g. conferences and publishing) but also to communities of policy and practice.

 

This award is open to Fellows and Individual Members of the RSA only. Please email the membership team at [log in to unmask] to check your eligibility for these categories of membership.

 

The full Terms and Conditions governing the Grants are available in the Fellowship and Membership Research Grant Handbooks.

 

The Research Grants operate a two stage application and assessment process. In the first round, applicants submit an expression of interest (see details in the handbook). Shortlisted applicants from the first round will then be asked to complete an application form and send in their full proposal as part of the final selection round.
