Child and Family Research Assistantships Competition
The Graduate School
Loyola University Chicago
Description: Research assistantships for Ph.D. students whose academic work focuses on child/family issues so as to enhance development of a research excellence in this area. These nine-month awards carry a stipend of $14,000 and a full tuition scholarship of up to 21 credit hours. The awards are for one academic year only. The Graduate School will consider nominations for renewal of funding in subsequent competitions (eligibility for funding in limited to three years). Renewal, however, is by no means automatic as The Graduate School’s intent is to spread the opportunity to the greatest number of eligible students.
Eligibility: Incoming or current Ph.D. students whose academic work focuses on child/family issues.
Nomination Procedure: for each nomination, the Graduate Program Director is asked to submit, by email to Patricia Mooney-Melvin (pmooney@luc.edu), Associate Dean, the following information:
1. A cover letter (1 page) which discusses the nominee’s qualifications for receiving the research assistantship.
2. A copy of the student’s transcript (unofficial Loyola transcript or a copy of the nominee’s transcript if a new student).
3. The student’s curriculum vita.
4. A detailed description (maximum two-page) description of the assistantship duties the program plans to assign to the nominee and the name of the graduate faculty member who will be supervising the research assistant.
It will be assumed that nominations forwarded by the GPD are fully supported by the Chair/Dean and the Program even though no letters of support from the Chair/Dean are required.
Deadline: 5:00 p.m. Monday, March 9, 2009.
Award Decisions: The Deans of The Graduate School will rank nominees and make award decisions based on the quality of the student, quality of the nominating program, the research productivity of the graduate faculty member whom the student will be assisting, the degree to which the issues of children and family are a major component of the proposed research, and available resources. No more than four awards will be given.
The awards will be offered to individual students, not departments; i.e. if an offer is declined, The Graduate School will offer the assistantship to the next ranked applicant.
