Grant Funding
A review of how the Graduate Student Association distributes grant funding.
Grant Funding
The Graduate Student Association oversees the distribution of research and conference grant funding. This is done through a competitive application process. The GSA has a student-led review and award process.
GSA grants are supplemental to aid in graduate student academic and professional development. Due to the limited nature of grant funding, the application process is very competitive. It is designed to expose graduate students to the scrutiny and specificity of grants in the public and private sectors. The GSA has caps on the amount any one student can receive for a grant application. To learn more about GSA grant funding, please read the GSA Grant Handbook.
