Are you planning to conduct research on collegiate recreation during the next year?

NIRSA has a grant program to financially assist you with your project!

The NIRSA Collegiate Recreation Research Grant encourages the development and dissemination of impactful, research-based knowledge to the field of collegiate recreation. The NIRSA Collegiate Recreation Research Grant includes a cash stipend (up to $2,000) for faculty, staff, or graduate students who are interested in supporting NIRSA’s Research Agenda.

Last year’s grant was used to research gender equity guidelines in intramural and club sports.

Last year’s grant was awarded to Jacqueline McDowell and her research team at the University of Illinois and their proposal “Toward the Development of National Intramural and Club Sport Gender Equity Guidelines.”
The deadline to receive completed proposals is June 1. More information and complete submission requirements are available on the NIRSA website.
