KITP Call for Proposals 2023
Now is the time to submit program pre-proposals or full proposals for the 2025-2026 academic year. KITP activities consist of 2-4 month focused research programs. "Pre-proposal" submissions need not be elaborate — a title, at least two paragraphs explaining the idea, suggestions for organizers and key program participants, and an indication of whether you will desire a four day conference as part of the program is adequate. Members of the KITP and the Advisory Board will review these pre-proposals, encourage the development of promising ones into full proposals, and guide coordination of proposals in related areas.
Program planning proceeds through Fall 2023 and reaches preliminary conclusions in early February 2024. Submissions will be of greatest use if they arrive by November 1, 2023.
