The Simons Fellows program provides funds to faculty for up to a semester-long research leave from classroom teaching and administrative obligations, including salary replacement funds and funds for expenses related to the leave. Sabbatical research leaves from classroom teaching and administrative obligations can provide strong intellectual stimulation and lead to increased creativity and productivity in theoretical research.

Eligibility is restricted to sabbatical or equivalent leave-eligible faculty who wish to use the Simons Fellowship award for the purpose of extending at least a single-term sabbatical research leave to a full academic year without teaching or administrative responsibilities. A Fellow must be approved by their institution for a full year of sabbatical research leave, consisting of two consecutive semesters or three consecutive quarters with at least 50 percent of the year fully paid by the home university and no more than 50 percent fully or partly supported by the fellowship.

The deadline to submit applications is October 2, 2024, at 12 p.m. (noon) EDT. Late applications will not be accepted. Applications must be submitted via the Simons Award Manager (SAM), https://sam.simonsfoundation.org/. Please click on the Funding Opportunities icon. Applications should be started and submitted under the applicant’s own account in the Simons Award Manager (SAM). For the Simons Fellows in Mathematics application, please click on Create Application and then on Begin Application.

Informational videos on submitting applications in SAM can be found here. Proposal attachments should be single spaced and in a common typeface and font size no smaller than 10 points. Margins must be at least half an inch in all directions.

Please note that in the event of budgetary or other considerations The Simons Foundation, Inc. reserves the right to refer an application to The Simons Foundation International, Ltd. (SFI) for consideration and funding, in which case SFI’s grant policies would apply.

Please complete the application as follows:

  1. Proposal Tab:
    1. Applicant Details & Personal Data: Complete all required fields, including academic rank, demographic data, position/title and ORCID iD. This information should be completed in the user’s profile. The applicant may use the Edit Profile button to update their information as needed.
    2. Academic Degrees: Enter degrees (optional).
    3. Application Details:
      1. Enter the title of the application.

      2. Enter the award start and end dates, which should reflect the full-year sabbatical leave period. These dates will automatically populate in the budget.
    4. Proposal:
      1. Certification Questions: Answer sabbatical certification questions. Sabbatical approval is not required at the time of application but must be provided to the foundation at least three months prior to the start of the applicant’s award.

      2. Statement of Recent Work (two-page limit, plus up to one page for references and figures, which can be embedded within the text): Upload a statement explaining the candidate’s most significant scientific work over the previous five years.

      3. Statement of Sabbatical Plans (two-page limit, plus up to one page for references and figures, which can be embedded within the text): Upload a statement summarizing the applicant’s plans for the entire leave period, the institution or institutions at which the leave is to be spent and the main scientific goals.

      4. Applicant Biosketch: Upload a SciENcv or fillable PDF NIH- or NSF-style biosketch.

      5. Students List: Upload a list of current or recent (past five years) graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and Ph.D. students, as applicable, including their dissertation topics and likely date of completion.

      6. Letter from Other Institution (if applicable):
        • If the leave is to be taken at another institution or institutions and will last longer than one month, confirmation must be submitted from the host institution(s) in the form of a letter signed by relevant department chairs or other appropriate university authorities stating that the visit is approved and briefly describing the facilities that will be made available to the applicant.

        • If the letter of confirmation from the prospective host institution(s) cannot be obtained, then the application must include a backup plan describing what would be done if the visit(s) were not possible. The location of the sabbatical must be confirmed, in the form of the above-mentioned letter, to the foundation at least three months prior to the start of the applicant’s award.

        • The location must be at either the originally proposed host institution or at the institution(s) specified in the backup plan, unless explicit permission is obtained from the foundation no later than three months before the start of the leave. Please use the Letter from Other Institution as the attachment type if including a backup plan.
    5. Indicate the extent to which, if any, generative AI technology was used and how it was used to develop your proposal.
  2. Contacts & Personnel Tab: Please refer to the instructions provided in SAM and foundation grant policies to add required institutional officials.
  3. Budget Tab: Click the Edit/Modify button to add a detailed, one-year budget in U.S. dollars. In the Personnel Costs section, provide the applicant’s known or expected academic-year salary for the full year of the sabbatical leave period as the Base Salary. If this is not yet finalized, please note this in the justification column and include the expected date of salary increase. The Requested Salary and Fringe Cost should reflect the amount that will be covered by the Fellowship during the full sabbatical leave period. For Leave Related Expenses, provide a brief itemization of anticipated expenses and corresponding justification, not exceeding $10,000. An insufficient budget justification may result in the proposal not being considered further.
  4. Abstract & Keywords Tab:
    1. Technical Abstract: Provide a brief summary of where the applicant’s requested leave will take place and the main scientific goals during this time.
    2. Keywords: Click on the Add/Modify Keywords button to select up to two tags as it applies to the applicant’s research in the last five years. Please note that your choices will be used to select the most suitable reviewers. 
  5. Publications & Other Support Tab:
    1. Publications: Provide a list of up to five accepted or published papers from the previous five years via the applicant’s SAM profile or PDF upload.
    2. Other Support: Provide current and pending support via PDF upload or via the applicant’s SAM profile. Provide all of the applicant’s current and pending external PI or co-PI support, which includes all financial resources, whether federal or nonfederal, available that are in direct support of this applicant and their research. It is not necessary to include internal funding or this current application.

      If providing via SAM profile, please select Yes and then choose the option to Select Other Support from Profile. Click the Assign Other Support for this Proposal button to add other support to this application. This will display all other support related to the applicant that was previously added to their SAM profile. Reporting overlap is required to submit an application. While overlap is not a consideration for funding in this program, please click on the Report Overlap button for each entry and select Yes or No as appropriate.

      If using PDF upload, NSF format is sufficient and should at least provide the award number, source of funding, title of award, dates of project and total costs for each support item listed. Please name each PDF as LastName_FirstName_Support.pdf.
