Requests for funds to initiate projects are more appropriately directed to the Ohio University Research Committee (See Below). Awards will not exceed $10,000.

It is important that CURRENT guidelines be followed when preparing a proposal to the Baker Awards Committee. Guidelines can be obtained at http://www.ohiou.edu/research/baker.htm.
