Guidelines for nursing research fellowship applications.
A career in nursing research requires advanced and costly educational preparation. Research fellowships are financial awards which enable nurses to receive intensive research preparation at the master's or doctoral level. Potentially qualified nurses may not be awarded research fellowships however because of a lack of familiarity with the review process and the submission of inappropriate fellowship applications. In this paper, sources of research fellowships are identified, and a general description of the review process provided using the example of the Nursing Research Fellowship, Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada. Guidelines for applying for research fellowships are also presented.
