Do you need funding to attend a conference, support your professional development or pay for textbooks? Apply by June 30 and you could receive a $500 Love of Learning Award.

Available to active members, Love of Learning Awards help fund post-baccalaureate professional development including graduate and professional studies, doctoral dissertations, continuing education, career development, expenses related to teaching and research, and more. Two hundred awards valued at $500 each will be distributed.

Joy Chiang, a graduate student at University of Sheffield and a 2020 Love of Learning Award recipient, used the funds from the award to support her coursework in Sheffield, England, while working toward a master's degree in the psychology of music.

"Being a member of Phi Kappa Phi provides access to an incredible community of students, professors, researchers, and scholars across academia," shared Chiang, who was initiated at the University of the Pacific.

She added, "I am grateful to be a recipient of the 2020 Love of Learning Award, and thankful that The Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi generously recognizes the importance of furthering education at any stage."
