The Southern Nursing Research Society (SNRS) Dissertation Research Grant supports doctoral students in the Southern region enrolled in research-focused programs as they initiate a program of nursing research. The award funds the conduct of dissertation projects intended to advance nursing science and practice. Quantitative and qualitative studies are eligible on any topic relevant to the nursing profession, without restriction to a particular clinical issue or research area.
The program emphasizes significance to nursing, scientific merit, and innovation. Peer review also considers whether the methodology fits the research question, whether the research team is qualified to conduct the study, and whether subjects are adequately protected. The proposed research environment, budget, and time frame must support a workable plan for completing the study.
