All ISERP workshops and seminars are free and open to the public. We invite proposals for new workshops or seminars for the calendar year of January 1, 2019 - December 31, 2019. 

Workshops and Seminars that are collaborative and involve faculty from more than one discipline will be given special consideration. We strongly recommend that your proposal be accessible to scholars beyond your immediate field.

  • A 3-page proposal that describes the proposed workshop or seminar, its mission, its structure and organization, and a plan for its first year. 
  • A detailed budget and budget justification.
