Student Faculty Research Awards for Fall 2022

The application for the fall 2022 cycle of Student/Faculty Research Awards will be open on September 20. These awards are used to support the collaborative work of our students and faculty mentors. Awards of up to $5000 will be given. Students from all disciplines are eligible to apply. The deadline for submitting applications is 5:00 p.m. on October 14, 2022. Because each application requires an endorsement letter from the department head, applicants are encouraged to build in time to get all needed materials prior to the deadline.

Please share this information with all graduate students and faculty in your academic unit.

Contact Catherine Cox ([log in to unmask]) with any questions.
