HON 300: Research Grants & Scholarships!

An Open Invitation to All DePaul Students From the DePaul University Honors Program Spring 2023

Do you want to live and study abroad and serve as a cultural ambassador? Do you want to learn more about applying for prestigious national scholarships? Would you like to receive dedicated assistance in crafting an eye-catching personal statement and research proposal? If so, DePaul has a course for you! This spring quarter DePaul is offering a section of HON 300 Honors Research Seminar: Research Grants and Scholarships devoted to helping students apply for prestigious national scholarships such as the Boren, Fulbright, and Marshall awards. These fully funded scholarships provide students with living and travel allowances so they can reside abroad while learning languages, teaching English, pursuing a graduate degree, or carrying out an independent research project. HON 300 is a two-credit course taught by Dr. Rachel Scott, an associate professor in the Dept. of Anthropology and DePaul’s National Scholarship Adviser. Enrollment is open to all students. In Spring 2023, HON 300 will meet in person every Tuesday from 2:40-4:10pm. Receiving one of these prestigious awards means instant recognition as a future leader in your field and can help launch your career. Whether you receive the scholarship or not, the act of applying offers a number of benefits. The skills you learn in HON 300 will help you to:

• reflect on and articulate your core values and interests
• learn to present yourself in both written form and interviews in a concise, professional manner
• get a better sense what you can do with the knowledge you have gained at DePaul

Registration for HON 300 must be done through the Honors Program. If you have any questions about the course or would like to enroll, please contact Dr. Rachel Scott at rachel.scott@depaul.edu or email the Honors Program Associate Director, Nancy Grossman at ngrossma@depaul.edu.
