Grant deadlines nearing

The deadline for proposals to the Internal Education Foundation in two categories – student-initiated research projects and "educationally innovative projects" – is Friday, Oct. 15.

The proposals should be submitted to the Dean's Office (S100, Science & Engineering Building) on forms available there, or on the web at http://www.union.edu/Academics/AcademicAffairs.

Proposals for student-initiated research projects must have the written approval of a faculty advisor who has agreed to supervise the project.

IEF guidelines are available in the Dean's office. For more information, contact Kathy Basirico, administrative assistant to the dean of arts and sciences.

Transportation costs should reflect the best rates available. Students planning to do interviews must show that arrangements have been made. If research includes work with human subjects, the proposal must have approval from the Human Subjects Research Committee.

The Faculty Development Committee is soliciting proposals for faculty research and scholarship activities. Applications and guidelines are available in Dean Charlotte Borst's office (S-100, S&E) or on the web at http://www.union.edu/Academics/AcademicAffairs.

Finally, faculty are invited to apply for grants from the Freeman Foundation and East Asian Studies to support research or teaching on topics related to East Asia or Southeast Asia.

Maximum grants are $6,000.

Applications are due Oct. 15.

For more information, contact Prof. Joyce Madancy, at ext. 6221.
