The research grant is intended to support students with the design and conduct of their research (for example, but not limited to, collection of pilot data, equipment costs for recording and transcription, transcription costs, and reimbursement for participants). It is not offered to cover presentation and/or conference costs. One grant in the amount of $1,500 will be awarded.
