Spring 2023 GPSC Tiffany Marcantonio Research Grant Call for Applications
The Graduate and Professional Student Congress (GPSC) Research Council and the Office of Research and Innovation (ORI) are delighted to announce the opening of applications for the Tiffany Marcantonio Research Grant. Each spring and fall semester, GPSC funds numerous grants of up to $1,500 to assist in graduate student research, particularly projects that relate to theses or dissertations. Proposals are due by midnight on Feb. 28. We encourage all graduate students to apply for these awards.
After proposals are submitted, a team of graduate and professional students will review the proposals and rank them using the application rubric listed on the GPSC website. All proposals will be scored and then discussed among the Research Council; we intend to notify winners in April 2023.
More information can be found at gpsc.uark.edu/research. For any questions, please email the Research Council at gpscrc@uark.edu.
