The deadline to apply to participate this year is March 15.

The EdFunder’s Learning, Evaluation, and Data (LEAD) Impact Group, in partnership with the Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness (SREE), is pleased to share that it will again offer the Summer Research Fellows Program. The signature program allows EdFunders members to collaborate with the graduate research fellow on a research project of the members choosing. Check out last year’s projects here.

The EdFunder’s LEAD Impact Group subsidizes the costs of the summer fellows by paying all administrative costs associated with the program delivery. In exchange, the EdFunders member agrees to meet with the fellow at least three times throughout the summer (launch, mid-point discussion, and final presentation of literature review), offer feedback to the fellow, and provide $12,000 to SREE to cover the direct costs of the fellow. This fee covers the fellow’s time on the client’s project, and attendance, and travel to the EdFunder’s and/or SREE annual conferences. If a member cannot fund the entire cost of the fellow, please reach out to the contacts below, as there may be an opportunity to partner with another EdFunder member on a project.

To determine whether a member can participate in the program, we will consider the EdFunder’s member’s willingness to pay, the feasibility of the proposed research, fellow interest in the proposed research topic, and the ability to match with a qualified student.

LEAD Impact Group co-chairs and SREE researchers will review your research question and offer feedback and guidance to ensure the question is appropriate in scope before the start of the fellowship period. The fellow review and selection process will be managed primarily by a member subcommittee of the Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness.

If you have any questions while completing this form contact Kimberly Lent Morales at klentmorales@helios.org or Jennifer Kush at jkush@sree.org.
