         Subject: AHRC ICT Methods Network funding

Apply for Funding from the AHRC ICT Methods Network -- Deadline 31 December=
  2006

The AHRC ICT Methods Network invites the arts and
humanities Higher Education community in the UK
to submit proposals for Methods Network
activities. Activities may include workshops,
seminars, focused workgroups, postgraduate training events and publications.

The Methods Network is keen to support both
single and cross-disciplinary proposals and those
that encourage new collaborative frameworks
between technical specialists and arts and
humanities scholars. The primary emphasis is on
the use and reuse of digital resources.

Proposals for hybrid activities such as
workshop/seminar/workgroup combinations are also
welcomed, as are proposals for any other activity
which falls within the Methods Network remit to
support and promote the uses of advanced ICT methods in academic research.

Funding of up to =A35000 is available for workshops
and hybrid activities. Workshops provide
training in advanced ICT methods for community
members within academic institutions. They engage
with issues such as: formal methods in analysis
of source data and the creation of technical
models; working with multiple technologies; and
other matters of vital practical interest to the community.

Funding of up to =A32000 is available for
seminars. These may concentrate on
highly-defined topics of interest and also
problem areas within the community or may have a more general focus.

For information on eligibility and how to apply
for funding see the Methods Network website
(<http://www.methodsnetwork.ac.uk>www.methodsnetwork.ac.uk).

For further information about submitting a
proposal contact Hazel Gardiner
(<mailto:hazel.gardiner_at_kcl.ac.uk>hazel.gardiner_at_kcl.ac.uk).

Forthcoming Methods Network Funded Activities

We welcome applications from individuals who
would like to attend Methods Network workshops
and seminars, but must emphasise that
registration is essential for these
activities. Participants are also expected to
make an active contribution to the activity.
Occasionally a Methods Network event will be by
invitation only, but all resulting materials,
including (where appropriate) podcasts, wikis,
training workbooks, reports and publications will
be made freely available to the community via the
Methods Network website. All enquiries about
registration for the Methods Network activities
listed below should be sent by email to
<mailto:methnet_at_kcl.ac.uk>methnet_at_kcl.ac.uk. For
