Call
for Proposals
This
is the annual call for USA Research Council (USARC) proposals.
The
purpose of the USARC grant is to initiate and
strengthen research programs and to increase
faculty/program
competitiveness for extramural grants. Additionally, USARC supports worthy projects for which external
funding is not generally available. Please refer
to the "General Guidelines for USARC Grant
Applications" for additional information on what
is acceptable, as well as inappropriate under USARC
funding. The application can
be downloaded
by clicking here. The General Guidelines for preparing the proposal are available
here.
A
Letter of Intent to submit an application
is required and is due in the Office of Graduate Studies,
222 Mobile Townhouse,
on December 17, 2007. This should include,
"Letter of Intent to Submit USARC Proposal,"
name, department, rank, title of proposed research,
and estimated budget request. If support from
department or college is available, indicate the
approximate amount.
The
deadline for receiving complete application
packages
in the Office of Graduate Studies
is Friday, February 1, 2008. You may submit your proposal as
a Microsoft Word or PDF e-mail attachment.
Applications requiring IRB review will be accepted
pending approval. It is anticipated that awards
will be announced in late March. Award recipients
are expected to present outcomes of USARC projects
at a future Annual Research Forum.
