American Institute for Sri Lankan Studies Language Instruction Grants

Description

AISLS Language Instruction Grants support students and scholars who wish to acquire or improve language skills. These funds can be used to help to defray the costs of language instruction in Sinhala, Tamil, or Pali. Normally, the instruction must take place in Sri Lanka, but until the end of September 2024 applications are also being accepted for virtual instruction with a tutor resident in Sri Lanka. The AISLS Colombo center will supply recipients with advice about language programs and tutors. Applicants must fall into one of the following categories: (1) individual members of AISLS resident in the US who hold a PhD or equivalent qualification, (2) individual members of AISLS who are undertaking language instruction to support the needs of graduate study at a US university, (3) faculty members at AISLS member institutions, (4) graduate students at AISLS member institutions who are undertaking language instruction to support the needs of their program of study, or (5) individual members of AISLS who are US citizens who are undertaking language instruction to support the needs of graduate study at a non-US university. Previous recipients of AISLS language instruction awards are eligible. Proposals will be considered on an ongoing basis. Please visit the award's website for more information.
