Teaching Lab Grants Available for Students

In December 2012, UF's Natural Area Advisory Committee (NAAC) will award up to two minigrants of $500 each to fund 2013 projects that enhance the information infrastructure of The Natural Area Teaching Laboratory (NATL). This is a great opportunity for professional development, as participants have the chance to practice the grant writing process. The NAAC seeks projects that will produce useful new information about NATL or will improve access to what is already known. To be eligible one must be a UF student, or groups of students with a designated student leader and a faculty sponsor. The application deadline is November 30th, 2012. By December 14th, 2012 the NAAC chair will notify the applicants of the funding decisions. For details see http://natl.ifas.ufl.edu/minigrants.php.
