General Fund

CAED STUDENT AND FACULTY RESEARCH

The Evelyn and Harold Hay Fund is established principally to support student and faculty research projects at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo in the College of Architecture and Environmental Design (CAED). The fund is coordinated through the Office of the Dean, CAED, Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo.


CAED STUDENT SCHOLARSHIPS

Harold Hay has a strong interest in supporting student work in the application and integration of environmental and sustainable design principles. To this end, the College of Architecture and Environmental Design would like to invite current students enrolled in the College to apply for awards in the amount of $250 and $500 to be distributed from the funds made available to the College by the Evelyn and Harold Hay fund.

Each year the number of awards given will be determined by the amount available. This year, in 2000-2001, $1000 has been allocated from the Hay Funds (i.e. two awards @ $500 or one award at $500 and two at $250). The award recipients will be recognized at the annual CAED Awards Reception held in May. This is a wonderful opportunity for students to show their work in sustainable design. Applications may be picked up from the CAED Receptionist (05-212).


Interdisciplinary Fund

An interdisciplinary fund of $100,000 was established for joint activities between CAED and other colleges at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. In particular, the funds are designated to support research projects initiated by faculty in CAED who require the assistance of expertise from the College of Business, College of Engineering, and College of Agriculture. Proposals are sought that provide interdisciplinary scientific and engineering consultation that supports the architectural implementation of water and solar energy systems in buildings including but not limited to solar stills, solar hot water, evaporative cooling, and roof pond systems. The fund is coordinated through the Office of the Dean, CAED, Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo.


Intercampus Funds

Funding has been provided to the Renewable Energy Institute at Cal Poly State University, San Luis Obispo, California to offer grants to members of the Society of Building Science Educators for applied research in passive solar energy, natural thermal control and water conservation in buildings. Proposals are sought that will demonstrate the regional applicability of thermal concepts based on current research topics specified by the Fund or that will venture into new areas of research related to the general goals of the Fund. All projects funded are expected to contribute to the development of practical and economical solutions that will lead to the reduction of current energy consumption demands by buildings and their occupants. This program is coordinated through Margot McDonald, AIA, co-director, Renewable Energy Institute at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo.

For more information about a grant program for the advancement of passive solar energy and water conservation in the built environment, see the EHHF/SBSE Program.
