Each program is clearly described -with detailed information given on purpose, eligibility requirements, financial data, duration, special features, limitations, number awarded, and deadline date. Entries are grouped by level (master's and doctoral) and purpose (research or study), so you can zero in on just the kind of aid you need. You'll even find the same convenience in the indexes, where title, organization, geographic coverage, subject, and deadline date entries are subdivided by both level and type of program.This directory is part of a unique three-volume series, published by Reference Service Press, that describesfunding available to support graduate study and research.

The science and engineering enterprise has continued to evolve, responding over the last decade to increased economic globalization, a post-cold war military, federal budget fluctuations, and structural changes in the way science and engineering are conducted and innovations are adopted. This report suggests ways to revise the data collection activities of the Science Resources Studies Division (SRS) of the National Science Foundation to better capture the current realities of R&D funding and S&E human resources. The report's recommendations would improve the relevance of the data on graduate education, the labor market for scientists and engineers, and the funding and conduct of research and development, and thus better meet the data needs of policymakers, managers, and researchers.

In response to changing market needs, The Grants Register has been substantially revised from previous editions for this, its 15th edition. With increased student and professional mobility world-wide, coverage in The Grants Register has been extended from the English speaking world to the whole world, making it the only truly international guide of its kind. The number of awards has increased by 25% from the last edition, with all the information supplied directly by the awarding body. To improve ease of use, the layout and field structure has also been completely update. This has included the introduction of new fields on the level of study, individual eligibility and applications procedures as well as additional contact details such as email and World Wide Web addresses. The indexes have also been completely revised, with the introduction of an internationally recognised subject index which simultaneously incorporates a geographical guide to eligibility. An alphabetical list of awards will also be given. Now significantly extended, The Grants Register continues to be the only complete guide to awards and grants for postgraduates, young professionals, mature students and advanced scholars.
