Overview of Funding Opportunities Through RESI

The Race & Ethnic Studies Institute is dedicated to fostering, celebrating, and producing cutting edge research related to race and ethnic studies among the community of scholars at Texas A&M University and beyond. We aim to be the premier research institute of its kind in Texas and the nation.

We support research projects without regard to methodological or paradigmatic orientation. Located within the College of Arts & Sciences, we recognize the value in approaching race and ethnic studies from all scholarly starting points. The key thing for us at RESI is that the work we support helps us to advance our research mission and maps onto one or more of our defined research initiatives.

NOTE: All application deadlines are 5:00 p.m. Central Time, unless otherwise noted.
