Through its research funding, the Sigma Foundation for Nursing seeks to provide resources that help bridge the gap between research and clinical practice.

To that end, the foundation is accepting applications for the Sigma Theta Tau International/Chamberlain College of Nursing Education Research Grants program. Through the program, two grants of up to $10,000 each will be awarded to researchers focused on excellence and innovation in nursing education. The program supports a variety of issues in nursing academia, including those related to nursing faculty and students, teaching and learning, clinical and didactic education, in person and online classroom settings, and simulation.

Applicants must be ready to implement their research project upon receipt of funding, hold a proof of Institutional Review Board approval (or country equivalent), and complete projects within twelve months of funding.

To be eligible, principal investigator(s) must be a member in good standing of Sigma, be a registered nurse (or country equivalent) with a current license, and have at least a master’s in nursing (or country equivalent).

See the Sigma Foundation for Nursing website for complete program guidelines and application instructions.
