Dean's Grant for Student Research

To:       Faculty Colleagues and TC Students
From:   Katie Embree, Associate Vice Provost
Re:       Dean's Grant for Student Research

This year, Teachers College continues its tradition of supporting student research through the Dean's Grant for Student Research program. Awards of up to $2,000 will be made to students who submit the strongest proposals for research that have educational implications for the field and for the academic program at Teachers College.  The number of grants given is dependent upon annual funding; in past years, between five and eight grants have been awarded.

A poster session will be held on Wednesday, April 10, 2013 from 4 -- 5 pm  in the Everett Lounge where you may present your research proposal.   This session will be attended by members of the community and will be a time for you to share your ideas with student colleagues, administrators, and faculty.  The event will be accompanied by a reception.  You are not obligated to participate in this session to apply for the grant, but we hope that you will do so.  It will be a wonderful opportunity to enhance your academic experience.  Please indicate whether or not you will attend the poster session on the "Dean's Grant for Student Research Cover Page" attached.

A faculty committee will review proposals.

The following schedule highlights key dates:

Submission Date:                   April 2, 2013 by 5:00 p.m.

Poster Session Date:             April 10, 2013, 4:00 p.m. -- 5:00 p.m.

Notification Date:                  Week of May 6, 2013

THREE (3) complete copies of the proposal and attachments should be submitted to the Office of the Student Activities and Programs, 160 Thorndike Building.  Please contact Maria Hataier, Director of Student Activities and Programs, at (212) 678-3690 with any questions.
