Grant Overview
Priority Outcomes for Delaware's Research Improvement Grants for Doctoral Dissertation
Delaware's Research Improvement Grants for Doctoral Dissertation aims to advance knowledge and understanding of citizenship, government, and politics through rigorous research. The Delaware Department of Education and the University of Delaware's Center for Civic Engagement are key state agencies that can support these research endeavors. By focusing on specific priority outcomes, Delaware can harness its unique characteristics to drive impactful research. One distinguishing feature of Delaware is its diverse geography, with both urban and rural areas, including the rural southern counties.
Advancing Civic Engagement and Education
Delaware's priority outcomes for this grant include improving civic engagement and education. Research projects that explore innovative methods for increasing voter turnout, civic literacy, or community involvement can contribute to this outcome. For instance, a graduate student might investigate the impact of civic education programs in Delaware's schools or examine the role of community organizations in promoting civic engagement. By understanding the complex factors influencing civic engagement, researchers can inform evidence-based interventions that enhance Delaware's democratic processes. Applicants can leverage the state's existing initiatives, such as the Delaware Civic Engagement Coalition, to support their research.
Informing Policy and Governance
Another priority outcome is informing policy and governance in Delaware. Research that sheds light on the state's policy challenges and opportunities can help policymakers develop more effective solutions. For example, a study on the impact of policy decisions on Delaware's economy or education system could provide valuable insights for policymakers. The state's small size and relatively centralized government make it an ideal location for studying the effects of policy interventions. Researchers can draw on resources like the Delaware State Government's website, which provides access to data and reports on various policy areas, including economic development and education.
Delaware offers a unique environment for research on citizenship, government, and politics, with its mix of urban and rural areas and its history of civic engagement. The state's proximity to Washington, D.C., and its participation in regional organizations like the Northeast Regional Council of Carpenters also provide opportunities for research on governance and policy. By focusing on the priority outcomes outlined above, researchers can contribute to a deeper understanding of these topics and help drive positive change in Delaware.
