Deborah J. Norden Fund 2009

建築家であるデボラ・ノードンを記念して1995年に設立された研究旅行奨学金制度。最大で5,000ドルの奨学金が受けられる。研究課題や旅行日程、それにかかる費用などを提出する。二通の推薦書が必要。

Description
Applicants should submit in letter form a brief proposal (no more than three pages), which succinctly describes the objectives of the grant request and how it will contribute to the applicant’s intellectual and creative development. The grant amount requested (up to $5,000) must be specified. The submission should also include a résumé of not more than two pages, project schedule, and budget for travel and other project costs. Two letters of recommendation must be requested from individuals who are knowledgeable about the applicant’s ability and project. The fund may award one or more grants; total grant funds awarded will be approximately $5,000. The application process is extremely competitive. The intention of the fund is to support genuinely independent projects that require travel. Grant funds cannot be used for tuition, and grants will not be awarded to support an individual’s participation in an organized program, such as a university’s summer abroad program. While requests for support of dissertation research will be considered, they are not a priority of the fund. Preference will be given to strong proposals from applicants who have not had this sort of opportunity before.
