The Center for Asian and Pacific Studies is offering awards of up to $500 in support of the professional activities of UO graduate students studying Asia. Awards will be made for the following purposes: travel to conferences to present papers, travel to library, museum, and archival collections; and expenses related to book and article production and publication.
To apply, submit the following:
1) The cover sheet (available here);
2) A two-page description of the professional activity for which you are seeking support (include a budget justifying the amount you are requesting).
3) If you are applying for conference travel, include a copy of the letter of invitation stating that you will be presenting a paper at the conference. Your application should also state that you have first tried to secure funds from your department.
4) A letter of support from your faculty advisor.
Applications will be reviewed twice per year. The deadlines for the 2008-09 academic year are:
Fall: November 13, 2009
Spring: March 5, 2010
Awards must be used within one year of the date of the award. No retroactive awards can be made. Successful applicants are asked, after the award has been used, to write a brief letter to CAPS reporting on the completion of the relevant project.
Applications should be sent, as hard copy, to Lori O'Hollaren
at the CAPS office, 110 Gerlinger Hall, or as e-mail attachments
to her at loholl@uoregon.edu
