The University of Michigan received $1.2 million from the Manoogian
Simone Foundation to benefit research in Armenian history.

The donation to the Armenian Studies Program in the College of
Literature, Science and the Arts will provide funding for graduate
and post-doctoral fellowships, a visiting scholars program, annual
international conferences, graduate workshops, an expanded Summer
Language Institute and an outreach program.

Scholars in the United States and Armenia will be able to generate
new historical knowledge and change the way Armenian history and
culture is taught.
