Graduate Students ñ Are you in need of funding?  Remember to apply for an
Early Researcher Award or Dissertation Research Award by the Friday,
September 14 deadline.

***Early Researcher Awards***

Graduate students should keep September 14, 2007 in mind as the submission
deadline for the 2007 Early Researcher Awards. These awards, sponsored by
the APA Science Student Council, recognize outstanding student researchers
who are currently early in their graduate training (i.e., this should be
recently completed research, within approximately twelve months preceding
the submission deadline). The Council is unable to accept submissions from
advanced graduate students for research completed earlier in their graduate
training. Submissions for research in progress will also not be accepted.

Strong preference will be given to students who demonstrate outstanding
research abilities earlier in their graduate training (i.e., up to and
including masterís thesis or equivalent), and who show a considerable level
of independence in conducting their research.

Up to three awards will be given in 2007, drawn from basic science,
applied science, and/or interdisciplinary science areas. Each recipient
will receive an award of $1,000.

Please visit www.apa.org/science/era.html for more information.

***Dissertation Research Awards***

The Science Directorate of the American Psychological Association sponsors
an annual competition for dissertation research funding. This award program
assists doctoral students of psychology with research costs by awarding
30-40 grants of $1,000 each, and a few larger grants of up to $5,000.
Awards are provided to students whose dissertation research clearly
reflects excellence in scientific psychology.

Dissertation research in any area of psychology is eligible for the award,
although not more than three applications per year may be forwarded by each
psychology department. Eligible students must have had their dissertation
proposals approved by their dissertation committees prior to the
application deadline, but must not yet have received their doctoral degree.
Students who are not yet members of APA may apply for membership
concurrently with their award application.

The deadline for Dissertation Research Award application packets to arrive
at the Science Directorate is September 14, 2007. More information about
this exciting opportunity can be found at:
