The CAHEP Research Grant, administered by the Council for the Advancement of Higher Education Programs (CAHEP) through the Association for the Study of Higher Education (ASHE), provides funding to support research focused on higher education graduate preparation programs. The grant seeks to advance scholarship on the organization, administration, delivery, and outcomes of such programs, as well as pipelines, teaching and learning, and the experiences of graduate students and faculty. The aim is to enrich understanding of how these programs prepare future scholars, practitioners, and leaders in higher education, and to foster exchange among faculty, students, and program coordinators both within North America and globally. Recipients are encouraged to share their findings at the CAHEP or main ASHE conferences.
