Students at IU Bloomington who are conducting research in practical ethics for a class or honors project in this fall or who are planning to do so in spring 2010 may apply by Sept. 30 for a research stipend from IU’s Poynter Center for the Study of Ethics and American Institutions. Awards will be announced by Oct. 20.

Successful applicants will present a 20 minute presentation based on the research paper at the Poynter Center in the fall of 2009 or spring of 2010 as a part of the project. The selected students may also submit the final paper for publication on the Poynter Center Web site. Successful applicants will be invited to Poynter Center lectures during the academic year. Reimbursement for expenses will be made to the student’s bursar account by the IU Foundation after the presentation at the Poynter Center.

The stipend is available to assist students who will be participating in capstone courses, honors projects and similar research projects. The application process is in the fall semester for fall or spring semester courses/projects.
