STUDENT RESEARCH AWARDS
Deadline: 1 Feb annuallyDownload: Application
Total Awarded Annually: Up to 3 awards, $1250
Number of Awards: Two ($500) and 1 ($250: undergraduates only) wards will be presented annually.
Scope: Research that contributes to or uses herbarium resources in ways that augment the collections.
Research on any taxa typically accessioned in herbaria including all plant, fungal, lichen, and algal lineages is eligible. Supported activities could include, but are not limited to, fieldwork to generate vouchers for revisionary or floristic work, collecting morphological data from specimens, traveling to herbaria, or making and distributing physical specimens. Thus, students’ overarching research could include molecular approaches, but the merit of the proposal would be based on the ability of the work to contribute to building or improving herbarium resources. Additionally, meta-analysis of herbarium data would also be eligible, provided that a component of the research includes direct study of specimens.
Eligibility: Undergraduate
To become a member or to renew a membership, please complete and return a SHC Membership Application to our Treasurer (address provided on form).
Application Materials:
1) a one-page application form (see file attachment above) listing student’s name, address, and SHC advisor’s name and proposal title;

3) one letter of recommendation from the student’s Research Advisor, who also must be a SHC member at the time of application.
