Description
The Transcultural Nursing Society (TCNS) Research Award provides start-up support for a continuing trajectory of research into transcultural nursing phenomena. The Society offers the award to doctoral students conducting research in partial fulfillment of their degree and to doctorally prepared nurses who received their doctorate within the past three years. Applicants must explain how their investigation will further the knowledge base in transcultural nursing.
The award also connects research support with dissemination of completed work. Recipients must present their findings at a TCNS Annual Conference within three years of completing the research. The Journal of Transcultural Nursing holds first refusal rights to the first publication arising from the supported project.
