CAPS Grant Application

CAPS awards three quarterly education grants of $300 each to qualifying CAPS members.  The purpose is to support scientific research and professional development not fully funded by the state.  

There are a few simple rules:

  1. All CAPS members are eligible except Officers and Directors of CAPS.

  2. Travel to meetings, outside research projects, publication of scientific works, purchase of research equipment and supplies are examples of valid funding requests.  Final decisions on awarding grants will be the responsibility of the Grants and Awards Subcommittee.

  3. Funds must be used for the purpose intended and must be used within six months of the date of application.

  4. Applications not funded during one quarter are eligible for funding during the subsequent quarter without the need for reapplication.

  5. Members may receive only one grant per calendar year.

  6. Attach a copy of the seminar announcement (if available) or a copy of literature announcing the event/material for which funding is requested.
