Undergraduate Research Office Travel Grant

The Undergraduate Research Office (URO) Travel Grant Program provides funding opportunities to support travel expenses associated with student research, innovation, and creative activities. The goal of this program is to support student travel activities to present and collaborate on independent projects, or to access off-campus (non-local) sites to pursue their research and creative interests. Funding must be used to directly impact the proposed project, with the expectation that students will make significant progress on the project or engage in academic conferences in their related discipline. Awards are limited to $500 maximum for single applicant, or up to $1000 per project if 2 or more students are co-applying for this grant.

Eligibility
