Applications open for URSA's Summer 2023 Student Project Awards

Applications for URSA's 2023 Summer Student Project Awards are now open! Summer Student Project Awards fund undergraduate research and creative activity projects up to $6,000 for both individual and group projects.

Funds may be used towards fellowships (student stipends), tuition, travel, and/or supplies/services. Past awardees have used Summer Project funding to analyze data for peony growth rates, assess viabilities of milk formulas for muskoxen calves, to study the long-term effects of construction on rockfall frequencies, and more!
