Funding Opportunities
We want to increase opportunities for undergraduate students to engage in transformational learning experiences with faculty mentors. One way we work toward that goal is by coordinating funding for projects and associated expenses. We welcome you to explore funding opportunities for student research and travel.
If you have any questions, please speak with your faculty mentor. Or contact ugresearch@niu.edu for more information.
Undergraduate Research Funding
Faculty members can apply for the following undergraduate research funding opportunities:
Student Engagement Fund (SEF): provides student compensation and/or project supply funds
Conference Travel Funding
Students can apply for conference travel funding to help make it possible for them to present their work at academic and professional conferences.
