NOW ACCEPTING PROPOSALS FOR 2025-2026 GRADUATE STUDENTS
The Dean’s Institutional Access Small Grant Program is a competitive small grants program which provides up to $5,000 for social science scholarship that engages thoughtfully with, and advances SSC’s mission of inclusive excellence. Funding will either be awarded to fund dissertation research with an access-focus or access-focus dissertation completion (no predissertation research).
The program aims to promote inclusive excellence by recruiting early career scholars who demonstrate potential to bring distinction to MSU, substantially enhance the College of Social Science standing, and support the advancement of Institutional Access, Opportunity, and Excellence.
Each month, we celebrate individuals who are making a lasting impact at MSU, in our communities and in our world to build a more inclusive future for all.
The goal of the Corner is to provide access to basic care items for all students within the College of Social Science.
These recurring gatherings are designed to celebrate who we are as individuals and as a community, and how our diverse paths and stories enrich our collective journey.
