Since 1986, UROP has connected students to the academic life of the campus by providing critical funding as they partner with faculty for research and creative projects in all fields of study. We provide a range of flexible funding options to support students at all stages of their academic journey from early training Assistantships to student-developed Individual Project Grants—all the way to sharing their work at professional conferences and exhibitions. The following table presents an overview of our grant amounts for your consideration as you make your gift.
