professors and post graduate students engaging in the research within arts universities generally do not have much access to r! esearch funding.
Nevertheless EU has realized this prejudice. Especially, in 7th frame, there are several new calls for art and culture. Also in Bologna Process, There are several sanctions for PhD education as a third cycle
I think this problem also drawn from professor of art and design. Even they do not know, there are several research funds nationally and internationally.
For Instance, Last 5 years, In Turkey, Turkish Research Council opens calls four times in a year, but art researchers ignore to look at these calls. However the situation is getting changed day by day.
Few days ago, It is announced for our national university that our Higher Education Council will allow research assistantship position to art professors who only get the grant by the Council. We hope attitude in art research will be changed by this policy of sanctions.
I am sure ! same change happens in Europe and some where else.
I like to hear what other Yasmeniers think? What kind of policy of sanctions are there in your location for art research and PhD education to improve such problem
