2009 SPARC and AARC Awards
The competitions for the Students Preparing for Academic & Research Careers (SPARC) and Advancing Academic-Research Careers (AARC) are now open. These awards are offered as part of ASHA's Strategic Objective to Increase Research Commitment.
The goal of SPARC is to foster students' interest in the pursuit of PhD education and careers in academia in order to fill faculty/researcher vacancies in communication sciences and disorders (CSD). The AARC Award is given to new faculty in higher education to support and facilitate their academic and research endeavors in the field of communication sciences and disorders (CSD). Applications for both awards will be accepted until May 15, 2009.
For further information about eligibility and application forms please visit the ASHA Awards Program website page or contact Sue Burger at academicaffairs@asha.org (SPARC Award information) or Sharon Moss at smoss@asha.org (AARC Award information).
