* GRAD Alumni Research Award *

Alumni Research Award

Due to the generosity of a number of loyal graduates of Dartmouth's
graduate programs, the Alumni Fund and the School of Graduate and
Advanced Studies have received donations which have been placed into a
special alumni graduate fund. 
Funds for Thesis Research

The School of Graduate and Advanced Studies, through the generosity of
our alumni, has funds available to support the research of our current
graduate students. 

Currently enrolled graduate students, engaged in thesis research at
Dartmouth College can apply for an Alumni Research Award during the
spring term of each calendar year. (Deadline: May 5) Please submit the
application to the School of Graduate and Advanced Studies, 37 Dewey
Field Road, Suite 6062, room 437.
The maximum amount of each award will be limited to $1,000.00, but no
more than $500.00 of this can be used for travel. A detailed budget is
required.
Requests for travel to attend a scientific meeting or to purchase
computers, peripherals, or other forms of laboratory equipment will not
be considered.

Application Requirements

Your application must include the following:

A letter of support from your advisor
A one-page description of your research
A detailed budget proposal for the award funds. The award is designed to
enhance your thesis research activity, and as such, your request must
propose something that you might not readily accomplish otherwise.
Some examples are: provide access to a library archive to examine an
original manuscript; provide access to a specialized item of equipment
not available at Dartmouth; provide payment for additional subjects;
perform field work at a distant site that might add an interesting
perspective to data collected from your existing, local field site(s).

Recipients of Graduate Alumni Research Awards will be required to submit
to the Graduate Office a one page synopsis of the activity they
conducted with their award within 30 days of completion of their funded
project.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Jane Seibel in
the Graduate Studies Office, 37 Dewey Field Road, Suite 6062, room 437.
