Awards ordinarily commence on 1 September but other starting dates (after 1 July) could also be requested if the character of the project makes this appropriate.
Eligibility:
Applicants could also be citizens of any country and studying at colleges or universities in any country. they need to be graduate students who will complete the writing of a dissertation within the award year.
Dissertations eligible for the grants are those concerning issues that interest the inspiration , namely, those concerning violence and aggression in reference to social change, intergroup conflict, war, terrorism, crime, and family relationships, among other subjects. Dissertations with no relevance to understanding human violence and aggression won’t be supported. Priority also will tend to areas and methodologies not receiving adequate attention and support from other funding sources.
These grants are made to PhD candidates who are entering the dissertation stage of grad school . Usually, this suggests that fieldwork or other research is complete and writing has begun. If analysis and writing aren’t far enough along for an applicant to be confident that he will complete the dissertation within the year, he shouldn’t apply. In some disciplines, particularly experimental fields, research and writing can reasonably be expected to be completed within an equivalent year, and in those cases it’s appropriate to use .
