Graduate Student Research Grants

The Aspire Student Research Program hopes to support students in the process of study or discovery that will produce new insights, theories, or will apply such knowledge to problem solving within the discipline or in society.

For this competition the maximum amount of money awarded is $700 for graduate students, $300 for all others, which can be used to cover supplies, expenses, equipment, and travel (SEET) costs. We ask students to have a faculty mentor and to work closely with them while preparing for this competition.

Please review the competition guide for more information. Apply for this grant through our online portal. Recipients must also provide a final report.
