Applications are invited from eligible graduate students to serve on the Student-Led Research, Scholarship, and Creative Activities Program Proposal Review Committee.

  • Read and provide constructive feedback on an assigned subset of program proposals
  • Attend virtual committee meetings to discuss proposals and make funding recommendations
  • Prepare “panel summaries” for an assigned subset of proposals to provide constructive feedback to the applicants

Student Proposal Review Committee members will receive $500 towards conference travel or other professional development activity.

Applications will be reviewed by the Vice Provost for Research and RSCA Program Administrator in the Office of Sponsored Programs. The composition and size of the SL-RSCA Proposal Review Committee will be determined in part by the number of grant proposals received and the disciplinary  expertise needed to evaluate the proposals received.

Please direct any questions to: Dr. Brachfeld, Vice Provost for Research.
