Apply for Funding from the AHRC ICT Methods Network =AD Deadline 30
June 2007

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=20
single- and cross- disciplinary proposals and=20
those that encourage new collaborative
frameworks between technical specialists and arts and humanities
researchers. 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 (www.methodsnetwork.ac.uk).

Please be aware that all applicants are expected=20
to submit fully- formed proposals with full=20
programme, budget and projected outcome
details and with particular emphasis on the research significance of
the proposed activity. Applications that fail to provide all required
details will not be considered for funding. For further information
about submitting a proposal contact Hazel Gardiner

We welcome applications from individuals who would like to attend
