Opportunity Summary:
The W.E.B. Du Bois Fellowship Program (Funding Opportunity Number NIJ 2010 2441), offered by the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), is a discretionary grant opportunity focused on research and evaluation. Its purpose is to strengthen and expand what is known about how crime, justice, and culture intersect and shape one another across different social settings. A central theme of the program is understanding crime and violence, along with the administration of justice, in culturally diverse contexts within the United States. In practice, this means NIJ is looking to support scholarship that takes culture seriously as a factor influencing patterns of offending and victimization, community responses to crime, and the way justice institutions operate and are experienced by different groups.
The opportunity is structured as a grant-funded fellowship and was expected to result in approximately two awards. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award. The published materials list an award ceiling and award floor of $0, which typically signals that applicants must consult the full solicitation document for the actual funding amounts, budget guidance, allowable cost details, and any constraints NIJ places on project size or duration.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning it is generally open to any type of entity, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications that may appear in the full solicitation. This kind of broad eligibility often allows applications from universities, research organizations, nonprofits, and potentially other qualified entities, depending on the fine print in the announcement. Because NIJ categorized the activity as "Research and Evaluation," the emphasis is on producing credible, methodologically sound findings that advance knowledge in criminology and justice studies rather than delivering direct services.
Key dates for this specific posting were: posted on February 16, 2010 (with a creation date of February 17, 2010), and an application closing date of April 16, 2010. The opportunity was later archived on June 30, 2010. Anyone trying to review the full requirements would need to use the "Additional Information" link to access the solicitation document, which is where NIJ typically lays out priority topics, required application components, formatting rules, evaluation criteria, and any special conditions tied to the fellowship.
For assistance, the listed program contact was Marilyn C. Moses, Social Science Analyst, reachable by phone at 202-514-6205, with an agency point-of-contact email referenced in the announcement. If there were issues accessing the announcement electronically, the notice also directs applicants to reach out for help, indicating NIJ provided support both for technical access and for questions about solicitation requirements.
