Thanks to generous funding from Instructional Related Activities (IRA), University Foundation, and other sources, CI Student Research is able to provide financial support for students' research and creative activities.
Here are some of the current opportunities to support your research and creative endeavors:
Research Conference Presentation Travel Support (AY24-25)
- For AY24-25, Student Research may be awarded up to $700 for currently enrolled students presenting their own research or creative project at a conference to help defray the primary costs (airfare, lodging, and conference registration). Due to budget limitations, priority will be given to students that have not received travel funding in the same academic year.
- We are unable to fund non-presenting students. Students applying for funds need to appear on the conference program.

Student Research Materials and Equipment Support Funding (AY24-25)
- Currently enrolled, undergraduate students may apply for up to $700 for materials
and/or equipment needed for their research and creative activities. These are competitive
funds and undergraduate student applicants should thoroughly address and provide the
following:
- Students will need to describe their research/scholarly activities and have a faculty letter of recommendation
- These materials should support students' scholarly and creative activities that will be presented outside of a class (e.g. work presented at conferences or a public exhibit, etc.)
- Certain items, such as laptops and iPads, are not covered with these funds. We cannot use funds items for personal possession.
