Research and Grant Requests
Part of our work in The Office of School Partnerships is to serve as a liaison between College of Education faculty and staff seeking to do research and grant work in the Tuscaloosa City Schools (TCS) and Tuscaloosa County School System (TCSS). In order to streamline and manage the influx of requests for research and grant programs within the Tuscaloosa City Schools and Tuscaloosa County School System, the Office of School Partnerships works in partnership with TCS and TCSS to manage requests. Faculty and students in the College of Education should make requests through the Office of School Partnerships who then communicate these requests to the superintendents of Tuscaloosa City Schools and Tuscaloosa County School System. For research, proposals must be pre-approved by The University of Alabama IRB office. For grants, please fill out the grant request form and submit it to the Office of School Partnerships by emailing the form to jburnham@ua.edu, Joy Burnham, Senior Associate Dean in the College of Education.
