Did you know that Honors students have the opportunity to win up to $500 for their research? How about Honors students may also be considered for an additional $500 in funding? It’s true! Want to know how?
Apply for the UHP/Sigelman Undergraduate Research Enhancement (SURE) Award!
Any current Honors student who is engaged in research may apply for an individual grant of up to $500 to support their research activities. Honors students may also be considered for an additional $500 through SURE Award at-large university funding. 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. The possibilities are endless!
One former winner shares their story on how they used their SURE funding to study the intersection of science and religion here.
