Subject: AACAI Student Support Fund 2011, call for applications

 

Dear all,

In 2010 the Australian Association of Consulting Archaeologists (AACAI) Student Support Fund had its inaugural year. On top of $2,000 core funding from AACAI two members of the Association donated $500 and $2,500 (Ironbark Heritage and Environment). This allowed 2 awards of $2,500 to be given. We received 8 applications, all of them deserving of support in our view. We were able to give 2 awards.
 
For 2011, last years donors have stayed on and we are expecting to raise funds for at least 3 awards of $2,500 - well on the way just a couple of hours after call for donations, so hopefully more.
 
In building the Fund through the volunteer efforts of consultants, we were inspired by the number of excellent proposals with clear links to consulting archaeology received. These were based on either: A site or study that began in the consulting world and was being given important further attention beyond the client funded scope or regulatory requirements; or dealt with policy, best practice or regulatory issues related to professional heritage management.
 
In short, we need good applications to keep this building and encourage you to get any students with relevant projects to apply. While we have looked at ways in which we could support a range of students, the need for a level playing field means that we are confining the Fund to full-time honours students at this stage. Applications close on March 18th 2011, but please let us know if your honours students are not confirmed in their projects by then in case we need to adjust timing.
 
Please distribute the attached information and application for students for 2011. Please also forward to any specific staff supervising relevant students in case we have missed them trawling your university's website. We appreciate any support you can provide for making the fund successful.
 
Kind regards,
 
Oliver Brown
 
(Chair of the Fund Subcommittee)
