The Mershon Center for International Security Studies (Mershon Center) offers a limited amount of support each year to cosponsor events that connect with the center’s mission and constituency. The maximum amount that will be considered through this program is $1,500. Requests for funding in excess of $1,500 should be brought to the attention of the Mershon Center Director Mitchell Lerner for guidance about next steps, and will not be considered through this program.

Proposals will be considered on a rolling basis by Mershon Center leadership. Submit applications to Kyle McCray. 

Although funding requests from any Ohio State faculty or staff member will be considered, applications from Mershon affiliates are more likely to be approved. 

All grant recipients must credit the Mershon Center for International Security Studies in all publicity and outreach materials.
