About this scholarship

The Franklin Research Grants program is particularly designed to help meet the costs of travel to libraries and archives for research purposes; the purchase of microfilm, photocopies, or equivalent research materials; the costs associated with fieldwork; or laboratory research expenses. Franklin grants are made for noncommercial research. They are not intended to meet the expenses of attending conferences or the costs of publication. Applicants are expected to have a doctorate or to have published work of doctoral character and quality. Ph.D. candidates are not eligible to apply, but the Society is particularly interested in supporting the work of young scholars who have recently received the doctorate. Independent scholars and faculty members at all four-year and two-year research and non-research institutions are welcome to apply provided that all eligibility guidelines are met. American citizens and residents of the United States may use their Franklin awards at home or abroad. Foreign nationals not affiliated with a U.S. institution must use their Franklin awards for research in the United States. Applicants who have previously received a Franklin grant may reapply after an interval of two years. Applicants must provide their Project Title; Project description; Bibliography; Publications pertinent to this project; Publications unrelated to this project; Foreign languages; additional relevant information; and reasons for requesting the budget. Applicants must also submit two letters of support. The application deadline of October 1, 2025 is for a January 2026 decision for work beginning February 2026 through January 2027. The application deadline of December 1, 2025 is for a March 2026 decision for work beginning April 2026 through January 2027. Please visit the award's website for more information.
