Student Grants

We offer two student grant types based on the student's involvement in the project's development.

Assistantships

Assistantships provide funding to students to partner with a faculty mentor to help on an existing project.

Individual Grants

Individual Grants allow students to take ownership of part or all of a project with an original proposal.
