[Teaching-Faculty] Walker Research Fellowships focused on North Country community top

[Office of the Provost/SVPAA]

Colleagues:

This CFP makes me think of the North Country pillar within Plattsburgh
Next.  Wondering if any of our faculty would have projects ongoing that
might be relevant?  Please consider applying.

Thank you,

Anne

Dear Faculty,



I am pleased to once again invite applications for the T. Urling and Mabel
Walker Research Fellowships.  The purpose of this program is to encourage
faculty from the region’s 11 institutions of higher education to undertake
research on critical issues confronting North Country communities, and to
make recommendations for possible solutions. The program is designed to
promote greater community-academic cooperation. Proposals that include a
strong statement of support from a local individual or organization that
clearly explains how the community will benefit from the project results
will be given preference.



A maximum of two research projects of up to $5,000 can be awarded each
year. The Walker Fellowship Steering Committee will determine the amount of
the award for each approved project.  In the past, funds have been used to
pay a student assistant, support travel costs and purchase software and
supplies. Only in limited cases have funds been used as a stipend for the
researcher.



Proposals are due by Wednesday, March 1, 2023, close of business.  For
further information and an application, visit
https://www.potsdam.edu/faculty/research-professional-development/walker-fellowship-program.
If you have specific questions, please contact Ada Law (lawam at potsdam.edu).



Regards,

Alan
