Graduate Student Research Grant
Nomination Deadline: March 3, 2026
The ABCT Research Facilitation Committee is sponsoring a grant of up to $1,000 to support graduate student research. The grant will be awarded based on a combination of merit and need.
Eligibility criteria:
- Graduate student in good standing
- Project must demonstrate a clear financial need in order for it to succeed. If the project is already partially funded, the applicant must clearly demonstrate why the available funds are not sufficient. Given this is a need-based grant, priority will be given to masters thesis and dissertation projects (i.e., which are required milestones in graduate programs).
- Project has been approved by the faculty advisor (see details below).
- Winner (and honorable mention) must be a current member of ABCT at the time of the awards ceremony at the upcoming ABCT convention in November.
Applications are due Tuesday, March 3, 2026 at 11:59 PM (Eastern US time zone). Applications should include all of the materials listed in GSRG Application Guidelines and one letter of support from a faculty advisor using the Faculty LOS template.
Please email the application, excluding the advisor letter, in a single PDF to the chair of the Research Facilitation Committee, Joseph Carpenter, Ph.D., at [email protected]. Include “Graduate Student Research Grant” in your subject heading. Please include the GSRG submission checklist as part of your application.
Please ask your faculty advisor to e-mail a letter of support separately.
