OBJECTIVES: Grants-in-aid are awarded to support
scientific<br>
investigation in all disciplines of science and engineering,
including<br>
the social sciences. <br><br>
ELIGIBILITY<br>
Eligible applicants are undergraduate and graduate students in<br>
degree programs. While membership in the sponsor's organization
is<br>
not a requirement for the program as a whole, the majority of the<br>
funds (seventy-five percent) are designated for use by individuals<br>
whose primary advisors are Sigma Xi members or who are Sigma Xi<br>
student members themselves. Applicants are eligible to receive
a<br>
total of two Grants-in-Aid of Research from the sponsor's
headquarters<br>
in their lifetime. There are no citizenship restrictions.<br>
International students and non-U.S. citizens are encouraged to<br>
apply. <br><br>
FUNDING<br>
Grant amounts range from $100 to $1,000 (with an average award
of<br>
$600) except for astronomy and eye or vision related research.<br>
Astronomy Grants are awarded up to a maximum of $5,000. Vision<br>
Related Research Grants are awarded up to a maximum of $2,500.<br>
Research awards are made to support scientific investigation in any<br>
field. Grants may be applied to the following: purchase of
specific<br>
equipment necessary to undertake the proposed research project;
travel<br>
to and from a research site; and reimbursement for human subjects<br>
(only for psychological studies). The program does not fund travel
to<br>
meetings or symposia. (klc) <br><br>
