Look for These Research Funding Opportunities in the October TIP

Joyce Bono
University of Minnesota

The SIOP Foundation announces two research funding opportunities for 2007. 

1. Funding to Support Research on Assessment Center Methods and Leader/Manager Development
The Douglas W. Bray and Ann Howard Award is designed to support research aimed at advancing understanding of assessment center techniques, managerial or leadership development, or, preferably, both. 

Proposals may be submitted by members of SIOP, including Student and International Affiliates. Award winning research proposals will show innovation and excellence, will use a longitudinal design where appropriate, and will have a sound technical/scientific base.

The maximum award for 2007 is $10,000.

2. Funding to Support Research on Analytic Strategies to Study Jobs
The Sidney A. Fine Award is designed to support research aimed at furthering the usefulness of analytic strategies to study jobs, especially as the nature of job content and the organizational structures in which work is performed evolves. Research proposed for this award may take many forms including, but not limited to, bibliographic, empirical, methodological, model development, and theoretical investigations.

Proposals may be submitted by members of SIOP, including Student and International Affiliates. Award winning research proposals will have a sound technical/scientific base, will demonstrate innovation and excellence, and will be feasible and possible to complete within 2 years of the award date.

The maximum award for 2007 is $10,000.

Formal calls for these two research awards, including proposal format and detailed eligibility criteria, will appear in the October issue of TIP
