Funding

所有学科的学生都有资格参加. 二年级、三年级和四年级学生，GPA不低于3分.鼓励25个国家提交提案. Students must be enrolled for at least 12 hours during the semester in which the project is funded.

奖金为3美元,秋季学期或春季学期的学费为5,000美元(扣缴税款), and $5,000美元(需扣缴税款).

The project could involve research, design, development, field study, creative work or performance. 该项目应要求约150小时的学生的时间(1).e., 每周10小时), and should be appropriate in scope such that the student can produce a research or other scholarly product (e.g. presentation, publication, exhibit, or performance) at the end of the award period. Ideally, 该项目应由学生发起, 但教师可能会向学生提出合作项目. 如果项目与学院研究或其他奖学金有关, the project should require that the student assume increasing responsibilities over the course of the semester. The award is not intended to support student laboratory assistants; it is intended that award recipients will be acting as principal investigator of an authentic research project under mentorship of their faculty advisor.

Students requesting personal support as part of the proposal budget must be eligible for campus employment.

A University committee composed of a representative from each college and appointed by the Provost will review the proposals and select the projects that will be funded under this program.

学生的提案应该尽量少用行话. 教师不应该合著或“共同提议”.导师可以为学生的提案提供编辑和内容方面的帮助, 但提案必须主要是学生申请者的工作. Mentors will have the opportunity for input and explanation in a separate letter of support. 项目建议书不应超过五页. The cover page, appendices and attachments are not included in this length restriction. A letter of support from the faculty mentor is to be submitted separately from the student application. 应遵循以下格式:

1. Cover Page. The title of the project, the student's name, UIN, address, email address, phone number, major应该在页面中央. The name, department, email address, and phone number of the faculty mentor should also be listed. 日期应该放在页面底部的正中央.
    
2. Project Description. 提供一个清晰，准确的项目是什么以及为什么它是重要的陈述. 该项目将如何对某一特定研究领域作出贡献? 提案应该尽量少用行话, 这样他们就可以被其他学科的老师评估.
    
3. Methodology. 提供如何调查研究问题/问题的描述. What steps are involved? What sources will be used? 在相关的地方，请附上参考书目.
    
4. Outcomes. 提供与项目相关的预期结果的描述，例如.g., a conference paper, report, journal article, exhibition, performance, or Senior Honors Thesis.
    
5. Budget. 包括一个关于项目资金将如何使用的简短段落. The student should be aware of the total cost of the project in broad terms: How much support is given by his or her department through the use of facilities? 奖金将支付哪些部分的费用? 3,000美元奖金将如何使用? Provide justification if the student will use the funds for personal maintenance while working on the project. Up to $500 of the award may be used for faculty mentor stipend; if this is the case, 这一点应该在预算提案中明确说明.
    
6. Independence of the Project. 提供独立研究或学术研究的证据. 这个项目不应该是实验室助理的工作, 教员的课程作业, or simple technical tasks. 如果工作涉及到一个更大的教师项目的一个方面, the faculty member should explain the student's role in her/his letter of support.
