The Calvin Center for Christian Scholarship is now seeking partners in funding and research expertise to help harvest the great potential that Calvin scholars offer via their networks around the country and around the world, as well as in their own right.
While CCCS projects must have a Calvin faculty member as principal investigator, the Center has the liberty, the experience, and the commitment to bring together believers from many institutions to work on issues of common concern from a shared body of Christian insight.
Calvin Research Fellowships are intended to help faculty pursue projects of independent scholarship and to aid them in ongoing, continuing, independent research.

The purpose of this endowment fund is to facilitate the development of international programs at Calvin College. Specifically, this endowment allows Calvin to enhance existing international programs and launch new and creative international programs and initiatives.

These programs should benefit Calvin—its programs, students, and faculty—as well as institutions abroad.
McGregor Fellowships have been established to support summer research by students working with faculty partners in the Humanities and the Social Sciences. Funding is available for both the student and, in some cases, the Faculty mentor.
The following are criteria for all sabbatical proposals: they should be creative and/or scholarly, have a public benefit, and be a project of sufficient size and worth to merit a full semester's work.
The Office of the Dean for Research and Scholarship administers a reserve travel fund for the purpose of assisting
those faculty members who are engaged to speak at important professional meetings and whose departmental travel budgets are insufficient to cover the cost.
