Faculty-Undergraduate Collaborative Research Grant
The CAMWS Undergraduate Awards Sub-Committee annually awards up to two research grants supporting collaborative research between a faculty member and an undergraduate. These awards can be for up to $1,000 each.
Who can apply
- Faculty-student pairs may be from institutions with graduate programs, but the student involved must be in an undergraduate.
- The faculty member participating in this project must be a current CAMWS member at the time of application. The undergraduate does not.
How to apply
Applications should include statements from the faculty and student researchers outlining the nature of the project, giving a prospective timeline for the project, an account of the respective responsibilities and intellectual contributions of faculty member and student, as well as a budget indicating how the money will be spent (the award covers such expenses as books, supplies, and travel for the student but not honoraria).
We encourage presentation of the projects at a future CAMWS meeting.
If awarded the grant, the undergraduate will receive a complimentary membership in CAMWS for the year of the grant.
A final report is due to the CAMWS office at the end of the project (no later than a semester after the receipt of the award).
