Book Description
Getting a graduate degree is definitely a smart move. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the average salary for a college graduate is less than $28,000. But, this figure rises to $37,000 for master's degree recipients and to more than $66,000 for those with doctoral or professional degrees. However, graduate school is expensive. It can cost $20,000 or more to complete a master's degree and up to $75,000 to finish some doctoral or professional degrees. That's more than most students can afford to pay on their own. Where can they turn for help? Reference Service Press provides the answer to that question in a unique three-volume series, which describes thousands of funding sources available specifically to support study and research on the graduate school level. Each volume is sold separately and deals with a different discipline: the social sciences, the sciences, and the humanities. In Money for Graduate Students in the Social Sciences, more than 1,000 funding opportunities are described in detail. And, it's easy to use the directory. No straight alphabetical listing of programs here; instead, you'll be able to customize your search by zeroing in on entries grouped by both level (master's or doctoral) and purpose (study or research). You can even access the programs by specific subject, title, sponsor, residency requirements, tenability, and deadline date. Now, in one place, you can find all the programs that are available to help you pay for a master's or doctoral degree in accounting, advertising, anthropology and ethnology, business administration, demography and statistics, economics, education, geography, international relations, law, library/information science,marketing, political science, psychology, sociology, or any other social science. There's never been a book like this.

Addressing the Nation's Changing Needs for Biomedical and Behavioral Scientists
Author: National Research CouncilPublisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309172039
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 133
Book Description
As biomedical and behavioral research progresses into new areas, the number of scientists active in various fields rises and falls, and the health needs of the U.S. population evolve, it is important to ensure that the preparation of future investigators reflects these changes. This book addresses these topics by considering questions such as the following: What is the current supply of biomedical and behavioral scientists? How is future demand for scientists likely to be affected by factors such as advances in research, trends in the employment of scientists, future research funding, and changes in health care delivery? What are the best ways to prepare prospective investigators to meet future needs in scientific research? In the course of addressing these questions, this volume examines the number of investigators trained every year, patterns of hiring by universities and industry, and the age of the scientific workforce in different fields, and makes recommendations for the number of scientists that should be trained in the years ahead. This book also considers the diversity of the research workforce and the importance of providing prospective scientists with the skills to successfully collaborate with investigators in related fields, and offers suggestions for how government and universities should structure their research training programs differently in the future.
