2024-2025 TIES Academy Scholarship Incentive Program

The TIES Academy invites CON faculty to submit a proposal for a manuscript addressing innovative approaches to current issues in academic nursing education. If your proposal is selected for the Educational Innovation and Scholarship Incentive Program, you will receive an incentive as outlined below and support from the TIES Academy to take your manuscript through the entire writing process, from conceptualization to publication.
Please complete the short proposal form.  Submit one proposal per manuscript, even if the manuscript will have multiple authors (we can incentivize up to 3 authors per manuscript). A rubric will be used to guide the scoring of proposals.
 Deadline for submission of proposals: Sunday, October 26, 2024

Purpose of the Educational Innovation and Scholarship Incentive Program:
  • Encourage educational innovation and the use of evidence-based teaching practices in the College of Nursing.
  • Increase capacity for authorship and published scholarship related to innovation and excellence in academic nursing education among College of Nursing faculty.
Scholarship Bundle
  1. Support to publish a manuscript on an activity associated with nursing education.

  • Novice authors who want to publish scholarly manuscripts addressing issues in nursing education

How does it work? 
This program is for new authors who have up to two (or fewer) existing published papers.  Each group must identify a mentor who can help guide and support your publication process. CON faculty who wish to be mentors indicate their interest to TIES Academy directors. The manuscript should be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal by summer of 2025. Acceptance of manuscript by a peer-reviewed journal should be achieved by autumn of 2025 (deadlines may be negotiable based on proposed timeline and progress).
