Win $500(!!!) for Research with the SURE Award

Did you know that Honors students have the opportunity to win up to $500 for their research? It’s true!  Apply to the UHP/Sigelman Undergraduate Research Enhancement Award (SURE) and we might just cut you a check.

Any current Honors Program student who is engaged in research may compete for an individual grant of up to $500 to support his or her research activities. Activities may include (but are not limited to) the purchase of research equipment or supplies; registration and travel expenses for conference presentations; travel to libraries or archives; and videography costs associated with the documentation of performances.

One former winner shares their story on how they used their SURE funding to study the intersection of science and religion here.

The application includes:

  1. Statement of Purpose
  2. Proposed Budget detailing how the funds will be used
  3. GW Faculty Statement of support

The possibilities are endless, but the deadline to apply funding (to be used this fall, spring 2021, or summer 2021) is Friday, October 9th. If you have questions, please reach out to bcrayton@gwu.edu.
