K-State 1xbet online casino School announces new Small Research Grant program

Submitted by Geraldine Craig

The K-State 1xbet online casino School announces a new Small Grant Program to support research expenses for 1xbet online casino students in their final year. Grants up to ,000 will support direct research costs such as travel to an archive, data collection software, or exhibition and performance expenses for 1xbet online casino students in the arts, humanities and social sciences.

A panel of faculty in these disciplines will review applications early in the spring 2015 semester. 1xbet online casino students interested in this opportunity can find complete information online. The application deadline is Jan. 23, 2015.

The grant program was highly recommended in the "Report of the Task Force on Needs of K-State 1xbet online casino Students in the Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences Conducting Scholarly Activities" that was completed in summer 2014. Chaired by Katherine Ankerson, department head of architecture & product design, the task force was charged with identifying unique needs of 1xbet online casino students enrolled in 1xbet online casino programs in the arts, humanities and social sciences.

Needs particularly related to scholarly activities and aspects of the 1xbet online casino experience that would enhance quality of their academic experiences and professional achievement was the focus. The task force administered a survey to 1xbet online casino students in these fields with the first question: "If sufficient funding from the university were available, how would you use it to enhance the quality of your academic experiences, scholarly activities, and professional achievements?"

The most common response categories were support for travel at 45.9 percent and support for research, scholarship and creative activity at 31.1 percent. The 1xbet online casino School responded to the task force recommendations by establishing this new opportunity for 1xbet online casino students in these disciplines where department funding and teaching or research assistantships are limited.

K-State 1xbet online casino School Dean Carol Shanklin said, "This grant program should facilitate students' completion of their 1xbet online casino degree while reducing some of their financial burden. The 1xbet online casino School is pleased to support our 1xbet online casino students as we implement initiatives to enhance the 1xbet online casino Student Experience."
