The Child and Adolescent Policy Research Institute (CAPRI) at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) will fund 12 undergraduate students to support education research training that promotes diversity and prepares underrepresented students for doctoral study. The UTSA Educational Research Training Program: P-20 Pipeline Issues will provide students, especially students from underrepresented backgrounds, with an introduction to education science research and scientific methods, meaningful opportunities to participate in education research studies, networking and professional development and mentoring that leads to doctoral study. Funding for this training program is provided by the Institute of Education Sciences’ Pathways to the Education Sciences Research Training program (Award #R305B160008). AY 2017-18 Alvarez International Study Fund Request for Proposals<http://education.utsa.edu/awards_announcements/article/ay_20... In an effort to enhance understanding of Mexico and Latin America, the Carlos and Malú Alvarez International Study Fund, offers scholarships and enrichment funds to defray the cost to students participating in UTSA Study Abroad programs. Programs must involve travel to one the following areas: unrestricted regions of Mexico, Central or South America. The International Study Fund is directly supported by distributions from the Carlos and Malú Alvarez Endowment for Student Success. The endowment goal is to directly benefit the student recipients and encourage participation in study abroad activities, thus the funds cannot be used for program related expenses, such as faculty stipends, travel, and educational materials.
