Student Grants

UROP is committed to scientific and ethical integrity in all research activities with which our students and mentors are associated. Student and faculty grant applications may require additional information if projects involve human or animal subjects, domestic or international travel as well as NSF or NIH grant funding. Applicants are strongly advised to review the information included here and plan applications accordingly. Some of the steps involved in university compliance procedures might take a significant amount of time to complete, so we advise you to start planning as soon as possible.

Avoid these common errors:

The proposal contains inaccurate information, typographical errors, etc. Be sure to carefully proof your writing well before the application deadline.

Either the student or their mentor are not eligible to apply for UROP funding. Review the eligibility guidelines and consider adding ineligible mentors as an "additional supervisor."

The proposal contains personally identifiable information (PII), such as the student or mentor's name. Remove all PII—even on the mentor's endorsement.

The application misses an important campus policy compliance procedure. Talk to your mentor if you have questions about working with human or animal subjects, planning travel or contributing to an NSF and/or NIH-funded project.
