IHS-PhD Program Student Research Grant

Interdisciplinary Health Sciences Ph.D.

Purpose

The IHS-PhD Program Student Research Grants are established to support doctoral students engaged in independent scholarly research, scientific inquiry, inventive technology, and artistic/creative activity. The intent of this funding is to support the student's research, not the student with a salary/stipend.

Doctoral students may receive a maximum of one IHS/PhD Research Grants. These competitive grants are not guaranteed awards for each student. The IHS-PhD Program Academic Affairs Committee will review funding request and determine the awarding of these funds.

Note: The typing of theses, dissertations and project paper, as well as journal publication fees and the purchase of computers or supplies and equipment commonly provided by departments or by other existing grants or funds do not qualify as a legitimate budget expense under these funds.
