Request
for Proposals
Due February 17, 2010
The NLN’s research grants program
support rigorous, high-quality studies that contribute to
the development of the science of nursing education. The
NLN is deeply committed to supporting beginning researchers
as well as accomplished nursing education scholars, and
encourages projects in which research mentors and protégés
partner to conduct a study. All Principal Investigators
must be current NLN members, either through their school
or through individual dues payment.
All studies must relate to one or more
of the NLN’s Priorities
for Research in Nursing Education. In 2010, priority
will be given to studies that focus on the category of “
Evaluation Research in Nursing Education: Evaluating Reform.”
More specifically, priority will be given to projects dealing
with implementation strategies and/or studies evaluating
the success of strategies for ensuring a diverse student
population.
Award amounts will vary with the nature
of the study proposed. Past grants have averaged $5,000
each, and none have exceeded $20,000.
The proposal must be submitted electronically
as a Microsoft Word document no later than 4:00 p.m. (EST)
on February 17, 2010 to research@nln.org.
Please review the Q&A
