The Wisdom Project
The Arete Initiative at the University of Chicago is pleased to announce a new $2 million research program on the nature and benefits of wisdom. Although it has been neglected in the past, a new scientific and scholarly study of wisdom has the potential to raise new questions, challenge assumptions, and develop new theoretical and empirical models which will enliven debate within and across disciplines. In this new grant competition, we seek to support highly original, methodologically rigorous projects from a broad range of disciplines on the theme of "Defining Wisdom."
2008 Research Grants
In 2008, up to twenty (20) two-year research grants will be awarded to scholars from institutions around the world who have received their Ph.D. within the past ten years. For a description of the required letter of intent and more information about the Wisdom Project, go to: www.wisdomresearch.org
or contact us directly at wisdom@uchicago.edu.
Letter of Intent Deadline: November 19, 2007
