Indiana High School Teachers are encouraged to contact the program student mentor, Dr. Larry Mordan, at lmordan@franklincollege.edu for more information and to get specific directions on the proposal process for their students. (Dr. Alice Heikens, professor, Franklin College, directs the Junior Research Grants Program.)

The specific Guidelines are on the website as well. You can access them now at www.indianaacademyofscience.org

Thousands of dollars have already been awarded Indiana high school students over the years and many of these students have gone on to exhibit their research around the state, and win awards for their research. They have also used their research experience to include in their applications for college and jobs.

The Indiana Academy of Science is proud to nurture the promise of high school students expressing an interest in the sciences. The Indiana Academy of Science has been an important voice of Indiana science since its inception in 1885.

The Indiana Academy of Science is a non-profit professional membership organization dedicated to promoting
scientific research, encouraging communication and cooperation among scientists, diffusing scientific information,
and improving education in the sciences. It continues to enjoy a high professional stature with a membership that
includes many of the states' recognized scientists and science educators. The Academy is one of the oldest scientific
organizations in the United States, and holds a significant presence in the state of Indiana and Midwest.
