The Student Research & Career Preparation Awards help provide funding for creative research, conferences, residencies, and travel in support of experiential learning and career preparation.

These grants celebrate the amazing contributions our students make to research, the University and the arts community world-wide. They are designed to help offset some of the out-of-pocket costs and make experiences like creative research, artistic/scholastic work, residencies, experiential learning and internships more accessible for our students.

All Student Research & Career Preparation award recipients may be asked to present a summary of their trip, experience and/or presentation materials, upon their return, to College of Fine Arts faculty, staff, donors, and students to create a stronger learning community.
