UROP Prioritizes Learning Outcomes
你还要解释你的“学习目标”，或者除了项目成果之外，你希望学到什么. UROP prioritizes learning objectives over project outcomes, even in Individual Grant proposals, 因此，你还应该清楚地说明，除了项目成果之外，你还将学到什么.
Navigate using the tabs at the top of the guide.
Like an Assistantship proposal, 这是审稿人将看到的第一部分，并作为项目的介绍. 你的目标也是抓住审稿人的注意力，让他们对你的工作感到兴奋.
Student Prompts
100 word maximum: State the specific objectives/purpose of your project and, if applicable, of the larger project within which yours is embedded. Explain the project's relevance and who stands to benefit.
Creative/Performance Projects: Tell us the objectives, points of curiosity from which you're starting, 你正在探索的假设或问题以及工作的指导原则. 讨论最终项目将在何时何地展出、展示或表演.
100 word maximum: 通过提供已完成工作的摘要，将您的项目置于该领域的其他工作中，并讨论影响您项目的理论传统. 注意你的项目的原创性以及它对该领域的贡献.
Creative/Performance Projects: Discuss what theoretical, aesthetic, and/or creative traditions influence your project. Include what contributions you're making to the field. 包括你自己的创作/表演历史，并谈谈它是如何为这个项目做准备的.
Mentor Endorsement Prompt
100 words maximum: Comment on the development of this proposal, noting the origin of the idea and its potential impact in the field.
Advice
Unlike an Assistantship proposal, Individual Grants have two prompts for the “context and objectives” section. You have more space for background information, but still avoid spending too much time introducing the topic. 将第一个提示集中在项目的目标上，并在第二个提示中填充上下文. 如果你的项目是一个更大项目的一部分，一定要突出你的贡献.
Navigate using the tabs at the top of the guide.
Like an Assistantship proposal, 本节继“上下文和反对意见”部分中提供的介绍之后，解释您将如何实现项目目标.
Student Prompts
200 word maximum: 解释在这个项目中使用的方法/策略，包括你的方法的理由. Also justify international travel, if your project requires it.
50 word maximum: Note any experience, training and/or coursework required to complete this project, and explain how you have prepared.
Mentor Endorsement Prompt
100 words maximum: Comment on your mentee's ability to perform this project, highlighting relevant coursework, experience with methods and/or materials, and other relevant certifications and qualifications.
Advice
Unlike an Assistantship proposal, 个人奖助金在“方法和策略”部分有两个提示. You have more space to explain, but still avoid overly detailed and technical descriptions of methods. 一定要说明你是如何获得项目所需的培训和技能的，或者你将如何学习它们. 在申请个人奖助金时，你可能仍然有有限的经验, but reviewers need to see how you will gain the skills needed.
Navigate using the tabs at the top of the guide.
Like an Assistantship proposal, 这一部分遵循提案的“方法和策略”部分，并强调参与项目将如何帮助您实现专业目标.
Student Prompt
100 word maximum: Describe how this project advances your personal, academic and/or professional goals, including how it fits within your degree plan.
Mentor Endorsement Prompt
100 words maximum: Respond to your mentee's learning goals, 评论1)你和/或其他导师将如何支持这些目标，2)这个项目将如何促进他们的学术和/或职业目标?
Advice
即使在个人资助提案中，UROP也优先考虑学生的学习目标而不是项目成果, 因此，你还应该清楚地说明，除了项目成果之外，你还将学到什么.
Navigate using the tabs at the top of the guide.
这是个人奖助金提案的额外元素，不包括在助教奖学金中，并用于解释您将如何获得项目所需的一切.
Student Prompt
75 word maximum: Indicate the resources and materials needed for your project, and explain how you plan to acquire and make use of them.
Mentor Endorsement Prompt
Should some of this grant be disbursed to a faculty/departmental account?
Yes: (100 words maximum) Explain the need to transfer funds to a faculty/departmental account.
Advice
您不需要将您的UROP资金的任何部分用于项目的供应或其他费用, though you may do so. Even if your mentor is providing all the resources, 你需要解释(尽你所能)这个项目需要什么资源和材料. You are not required to provide an itemized budget of project expenses.
Navigate using the tabs at the top of the guide.
Like an Assistantship proposal, 这是最后一部分，用于强调何时执行“方法和策略”部分中概述的活动.
Student Prompt
150 word maximum: 概述项目的主要阶段，提供活动时间表.
Mentor Endorsement Prompt
Optional: Provide additional information about this project timeline.
Advice
避免在时间表上塞满更适合提案其他部分的细节. 确保你的申请时间与你申请的资助期限一致(夏季或学年)。. 学生提交的项目提案持续到学年可能有类似的提案在他们的申请, but the timelines should be distinct.
