WSSA UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH AWARD – 2009
The Weed Science Society of America (WSSA) has developed an Undergraduate
Student Research Grant designed to encourage and involve exceptional
undergraduates in agricultural research. Interested faculty members are
encouraged to identify potential award candidates and discuss the
possibility of sponsoring a research project. Awards may be used as a
stipend, for research budget expenses (travel, supplies, etc.), to defer
fees, to defray living expenses for summer research, or any combination of
these items.
AWARD: Up to $1000 for support of undergraduate research to be
conducted over a minimum of one quarter/semester during 2009. This award may
be used to defray the cost of research supplies or as a stipend. Support of
a faculty sponsor is required. Awards will be made to the student, to be
administered by the faculty sponsor's department.
APPLICANT: The applicant is an undergraduate student with a strong
interest in Weed Science. Students majoring in all related disciplines may
apply.
TO APPLY: Applicants should prepare a 2-3 page research proposal
including name, address, phone number, E-mail address, title, objective,
experimental approach, discussion, budget and references. The discussion
section of the proposal should describe the expected results and their
possible significance to Weed Science. The student should provide a cover
letter in which general academic and career goals are discussed. A copy of
the student’s academic transcripts must also be provided.
FACULTY SPONSOR: Any faculty member who is actively engaged in Weed
Science research is qualified to be a sponsor. The faculty sponsor should
review the research proposal with special attention to the budget; the
distribution of funds should be approved by both the student and sponsor. In
addition, the sponsor should provide a letter of reference including a
statement of his/her willingness to supervise the proposed research and to
provide needed space, equipment and supplies above those requested in the
