Funding Opportunities
Internal Funding Opportunities
In the spirit of one of our founders, Kathleen Rao, these Education Scholarship Grants were created to demonstrate that AOE members can benefit substantially from small grants to support innovative educational ideas. We are grateful to the School of Medicine and the Med Foundation donors for assuring we have the funds to continue the AOE鈥檚 support of important educational research. The Grants provide a material benefit to AOE members鈥 scholarly development. The grants also help the AOE move toward its goal of becoming a research resource 鈥 an 鈥渋n-house think tank鈥 鈥 to generate important findings on questions of particular importance to the SOM. This goal is not only intrinsically valuable 鈥 but it also supports each facet of the Academy鈥檚 mission.
To that end, the AOE hopes to make the grants generators of rigorous evidence that can address brought to bear on important questions of medical education.
We aim to support faculty in the generation of potentially publishable educational scholarships. To that end, award deliverables will consist of a report to the School of Medicine for internal use and a manuscript capable of being submitted to an academic journal.
We encourage applicants鈥 creativity! We are open to considering all methods and approaches to generating answers, providing applicants can demonstrate that the research can proceed to results that are not only rigorously evaluated but able to be published.
