Description
The Institute for South Asia Studies at UC Berkeley offers this grant through the generosity of Professor Emeritus Bruce R. Pray. It supports South Asia-focused Berkeley assistant professors and early career lecturers who have completed a new book manuscript in any discipline within South Asia Studies. The workshop is intended to give the author substantive feedback midway through revision, while discussion can still shape the book.
Workshops typically last one day. Applicants are encouraged to invite outside discussants in their field and Berkeley faculty members to read the manuscript, provide feedback, and discuss specific chapters.
