Carver Scientific Research Initiative Grant deadline approaching

The Office of the Vice President for Research announces the 2002 Carver Scientific Research Initiative Grant program, a cooperative venture with the Roy J. Carver Charitable Trust of Muscatine, Iowa, and the University of Iowa Foundation.

Awards ranging from $5,000 to $15,000 have traditionally supported faculty in the Colleges of Liberal Arts and Sciences and Engineering who have ideas with long-range potential, but who need to conduct preliminary studies. This year eligibility has been extended on a trial basis to relevant faculty in the Colleges of Dentistry, Nursing, and Pharmacy. Faculty in the natural, physical, geological, and engineering sciences are eligible. No awards will be made in the social sciences (including psychology) nor in the humanities.

The deadline for submitting applications is March 25. If you have questions about the program, please contact Larry Rettig, 201 GILH, (33)5-2119, lawrence-rettig@uiowa.edu.
