A series of awards have been established to honor graduate students who undertake exemplary research addressing topics related to career information, career development, and career planning. These awards are for work on a doctoral dissertation or master's thesis approved by the student's institution, which may or may not be completed at the time of application. Applications receive a blind review by members of the NCDA Research Committee.
To be eligible for these awards, the student must have an approved master's thesis or doctoral dissertation proposal at the time of application, or have a completed thesis or dissertation within the past year. Proposals will not be accepted for a thesis or dissertation that was completed and defended prior to February 15, 2009. Relevance, significance, and research design will be given primary attention in determining the award recipients.
In addition, winners of the NCDA Graduate Student Research Grants will receive free registration and a guaranteed opportunity to present their research highlights as part of the Graduate Student Research Symposium at the NCDA Conference in San Francisco, CA, June 30- July 2, 2010. Travel costs are the responsibility of student and/or their institution.
