IBC Membership Awards

 

Overview

Membership Awards support one year of annual dues for the cost of NCURA membership for Research Administrators from Region VI. The awards are intended to help support research administrators who would otherwise be unable to access the NCURA network and catalog of resources due to financial barriers.

 

Every member of NCURA has a right, without regard to gender, race, ethnicity, age, religion, social class, sexual orientation, ability, personality, functional experience, or background, to fair and respectful treatment, equal access to resources to support professional growth, and equitable opportunities to contribute to NCURA’s success and we encourage all interested to apply.

​

Eligibility

You are eligible to apply for an IBC Award if:

• You are a Research Administrator from within the Region VI geographic area (Alaska, California, Guam, Hawaii, Nevada, Northern Marianas Islands, Oregon, Samoa, and Washington).

• Your application describes the potential benefit of the award.

• You submit a complete application packet, including required documentation.

• You have not previously won an IBC award

​

Please note: Awardees will be expected to submit a one-page summary at the end of the membership year outlining their involvement in NCURA and provide feedback on the application process and/or other NCURA resources.

 

The IBC Membership Scholarship is a standing award, and submissions will be reviewed on a rolling basis. Two awards will be given each quarter. See below for current award cycle deadline.
