Coca-Cola---Critical Difference for Women
Graduate Studies Grants for Research on Women, Gender, and Gender Equity

Description
Through the generous support of the Coca-Cola Foundation, the Critical Difference for Women Program at the Ohio State University will award up to 10 dissertation research grants this year. These grants are administered by the Department of Women's Studies and the Coca-Cola-Critical Difference for Women Research Grants Award Committee, made up of 8 faculty from 5 Colleges. The number of grants depends on availability of funds and grants may not exceed $1,000 for a 12-month period. Requests for smaller amounts will be highly competitive; in some cases, partial funding for a proposal may be possible.

Eligibility
Applications for Ph.D. research grants may be submitted by Ph.D. candidates who will have passed general examinations, at the latest, by the end of Summer quarter of the year in progress. Failure to meet this condition will result in withdrawal of an award. We regret that we cannot provide funding for dissertation writing. Only those who have never received a previous grant from the Coca-Cola-Critical Difference for Women are eligible for this competition.

Selection Criteria
Proposals will be evaluated according to the following criteria: relation to the objectives of the Coca-Cola-Critical Difference for Women Dissertation Research Grants; contribution to the applicant's field; reasonableness of the research design/analysis for the subject matter; feasibility of the proposed research; and significance of the dissertation for scholarship or knowledge on women/gender.

Deadline
Deadline: All materials must be received no later than April 7, 2008
