Graduate Student Research Grant (GSRG)

This grant competition encourages and supports graduate-level students to undertake research and creative projects that will contribute new insights in the student's chosen field. Please note that students must complete project before they graduate.  It is very rare that a student would be able to apply for an award and be able to finish it in the same semester that they will graduate. This grant is administered through the Office of Research, Grants and Contracts.
