The online application is finished
By · CommentsOur brand new 2009-2010 online grant application has now been completed and is being integrated into our website. It should become available within the next few hours, with notifications to public health schools being sent out at the same time. Thanks for all the patience…going digital for the application process has been difficult, but we hope it will be easier for everyone in the long run.
Announcing Travel Grants
By · CommentsThe NEWAID Foundation is proud to announce travel grants as an addition to our traditional masters research grants. Travel grants are awards up to $750 that students can use to fund travel to projects relating to neglected infectious diseases in the developing world. By adding this award type we hope to be able to provide support to more students who need just a little bit of help to get started on their projects.
On our new application (ready to go live this afternoon), applicants will be able to apply for a travel grant directly, or may check a box specifying that they wish to be considered for a travel grant if they are not selected for the larger research award. If the latter option is checked, students will be contacted before being awarded the travel grant to make sure that they will still be able to conduct their research with the funding available.
2010 Application Cycle Update
By · CommentsOur online application is under final review and testing this weekend. We will be posting the application online with notifications to all public health schools this coming week. Thanks for your patience.
