The 2017 Student as Scholar grant competition is accepting applications! Student as Scholar grants are intended to support instructors developing particular inquiry-based learning experiences in undergraduate courses at the University of Prince Edward Island. Funds can be requested for the purchase of resources, supplies, and equipment or to defray other costs related to the development and implementation of research-based projects that engage students in the context of a “for credit” course. Funds may not be used to supplement a faculty member’s personal research agenda. All faculty and term instructors are eligible to apply.  Although requests may be up to $5,000, applicants should be aware that the full amount will only be awarded under exceptional circumstances.

Applications are to be sent to the Faculty Development Office at fdo@upei.ca on or before April 28 by 4:00 pm.  If you would like an application form, please email Gerald at fdo@upei.ca.
