The Undergraduate Research Program is currently accepting proposals to conduct research for the 2016-17 academic year.
The Undergraduate Research grants are available to students of sophomore status or higher and are student-led. The project must be endorsed by a faculty/staff member who would preside as the student researcher's mentor during the academic year the grant application is submitted. Multiple students may apply for a grant. Student researchers will not receive salary/wages from the project, and all projects that are funded are expected to submit an abstract to either the National Conference on Undergraduate Research (NCUR) or the University of Wisconsin Symposium on Research and Creative Activities and present at the respective applied conference. This grant is currently non-competitive and popular among student researchers, making it the largest grant category among the Undergraduate Research Program.
Writing Mentors are available for additional grant applying assistance. For more information on the grant oriented Writing Mentors, please visit http://www.uww.edu/urp/grants/writing-mentors
