Graduate Students Take Note!

$ $ $ $ Research Funds Available $ $ $ $

Graduate students who are members of the American Counseling Association and the Association for Assessment in Counseling (AACE) are encouraged to apply for the 2004 AACE Donald Hood Student Research Grant. This annual grant program is designed to recognize and honor students who are seeking to complete research investigations that show promise for outstanding contributions to the counseling profession. The Student Research Grant provides a cash award up to $500.00, a certificate of recognition presented at the ACA Annual Conference and acknowledgment of the award in AACE Newnotes. Winners of the grant must prepare a manuscript for submission to Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, AACE’s journal.

In addition to a cover letter, vita, and a faculty letter of support, interested students should submit a 5-page research proposal. The proposal should be written in APA style with an abstract, introduction, design and methodology, and selected references sections. The proposal should include:

  1. A 50-word statement indicating how the project will be helped by the grant
  2. A 50-word statement discussing the significance of the project
  3. A project budget

The Title Page, Table of Contents, and References are not included in the page count. If additional space is required to present details of a research instrument or to elaborate on a vital point, an appendix of up to three (3) additional pages may be attached. Studies using any research approach (e.g., ethnographic, experimental, historical, survey, etc.) are encouraged.

All applications must be postmarked by February 1, 2005. Send 4 copies of all application materials to:

Dr. Catherine Y. Chang, P.O. Box 3980, Atlanta, GA 30302-3980

Questions may be directed to Dr. Chang at 404-651-3253 or e-mail: cychang@gsu.edu.
