US - The USPOULTRY Foundation is now accepting applications from colleges and universities for the Industry Education Recruitment Funding programme.The funding supports student recruitment at colleges and universities that cultivate careers in the poultry and egg industry.
Any institution of higher education in the United States that does not have a poultry science department or degree, but can show conceivable ways of connecting students with the poultry and egg industry, is eligible to apply for a recruitment grant of up to $7,000.
If a school offers a poultry science minor, that school may be eligible for up to $3,000 in additional funding, pending USPOULTRY Foundation Board approval.
A committee of university and industry professionals will review funding requests and make recommendations to the USPOULTRY Foundation board of directors.
