Oklahoma Ornithological Society - Grants & Scholarships

The OOS offers small grants (generally < $1000) to help fund ornithological research in the Sooner State. We will accept proposals on any aspect of Oklahoma ornithology. We welcome proposals from students, professionals, and amateur investigators. The only requirements we place on grant recipients are that the funds support research that will lead to publishable results (either in the Bulletin of the Oklahoma Ornithological Society or some other journal) and that each recipient presents a summary of the work to our annual OOS meeting, usually held in October.

To apply, prepare a brief proposal (no more than 5 pages, double-spaced) with the following information:

name, institution, and contact information for the applicant
title
introduction and justification for the research
clear statement of objectives
study area and methods description
anticipated results
literature cited
itemized budget of expenses for which the funds will be used

2010 proposals are due by April 1st, and awards will be announced about May 1st.

Please send proposal as an email attachment or by normal mail to:
