IU CISAB - Funding Opportunities

CISAB FUNDING
  • CISAB & CTRD Graduate Scholars (for current PhD students)
    Apply for up to 12 months of stipend support. Application instructions for 2008/9 support are available here, and are due by 4pm on Feb. 22, 2008.

  • Student/Postdoc Travel Awards
    To apply for up to $400 to present your research at national or international meetings, please send an email note to cisab (at) indiana.edu including a brief description of the meeting you plan to attend, your proposed budget, and a copy of the abstract you intend to present. Also, please ask two CISAB core faculty to send email notes confirming that they support your application. Due to increasingly tight budgets, travel funds will not usually be awarded to the same student in more than one consecutive year.

  • Distinguished Guest Speakers
    To apply for funds to help bring a distinguished guest speaker to our campus, please send an email note to cisab (at) indiana.edu describing the details and providing the names of at least two CISAB faculty who have agreed to sponsor the request. Requests for both partial and full funding of individual speakers will be considered at any time of the year. Requests for groups of speakers (e.g., a mini-symposium or A501 course) will be solicited twice yearly (summer and late Fall.)

  • Summer Research Experience for Undergraduates
    To apply to participate in a 10 week summer program at Indiana University in which you partner with a mentor research laboratory to conduct animal behavior research, please explore our REU web site and submit an on-line application.

  • Charles H. Turner Program for Undergraduates
    To apply for travel funding and to participate in a workshop and mentorship program at the annual meeting of the Animal Behavior Society, largest North American professional society in animal behavior.

  • Other Fellowships and Research Grants for Graduate Students in Animal Behavior

Most of the above funding opportunities are available only to CISAB members. Any member of our IU academic community (faculty, students, teachers, postdoctoral associates and technicians) may apply for CISAB membership by filling out the on-line form. To receive regular reminders of application deadlines, please join our email mailing list

All requests for funding should include the names and email addresses of two CISAB Core faculty who have agreed to sponsor your request (click here for the list of current Core faculty).
