Funds may be used for dissemination of project results, including travel to a professional meeting to present the results of a previous student research project. Use of human subjects or animals in the research must receive approval by the appropriate University committee. A final report on the project, signed and approved by the faculty supervisor, must be submitted to the review committee by September 1. All research projects proposed for funding should be related to credit course work through regular course enrollment, an Honors Option Contract, independent study, etc., during the academic year for which grant is awarded. Projects which run beyond or span academic years require special justification.
Project is realistic for the student's background, the time frame, and the amount of funding.
Faculty supervisor supports the project and has an appropriate background for supervising the project. Project is likely to result in a paper, creative performance, visual art object, or academic project that can be presented to a professional audience and published in a scholarly publication. Project funding is for the fiscal year 2001-2002. Awards are subject to availability of funds.
