About the AERA Grants Program:
The AERA-NSF Grants Program offers small grants and training opportunities designed to achieve two primary objectives: (1) to enhance the capability of the education research community to conduct policy- and practice-relevant research using the rich, nationally and internationally representative data sets supported by NCES, NSF, and other federal agencies; and (2) to support and promote rigorous education research. The small grants component is an open competition to support field initiated research that is expected to produce high-quality policy- and practice-related studies on important and timely issues in education. Both Research Grants (for those who have earned a doctoral degree) and Dissertation Grants (for advanced doctoral students) are offered. Researchers who receive support come from a wide variety of disciplines, such as education, sociology, economics, statistics, demography, and psychology, with researchers often working across disciplines.
