Get money to conduct research! Apply to receive up to $1500 towards a research project or creative work.
Undergraduate Research Awards provide up to $1,500 to undergraduate student recipients to support their work with a UMBC faculty mentor on an original project. Students of all years and disciplines are invited to apply, as long as they will continue at UMBC long enough to complete the proposed work. A multidisciplinary faculty review committee chooses recipients on a competitive basis. Recent projects have included building a comprehensive history of the non-pedal steel guitar, characterizing mutations in ribosomal genes, exploring new approaches to acting techniques, and analysing the work of William Blake.
Applications for Undergraduate Research Awards are currently being accepted.
The deadline for proposals is March 5th.
