Process
The Grant Program was designed to promote and reward excellence and creative vision in STEM fields (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Medicine). Research grant applications are exclusively for credentialed (applicable PhD or equivalent) individuals and teams. Applications for the Grant Program open continuously, but at irregular intervals; dependent on how quickly the associated fundraising campaign is fulfilled.
Our selection process is relatively straightforward and simple. Grades do not mean everything. We care vastly more about what you can do with what you have learned. What creative application can you derive from an abstract concept? Doing so with extremely difficult coursework stands out. Can you see something in a way that nobody else has? Additionally, are you eager and passionate to share what you learn?
For an application to be considered, the candidates must meet all of the following criteria:
- Project lead must hold a Ph.D. in a STEM field
- Project lead must be a member of the school's faculty
- Project lead must have prior research publications
- All candidates must be members of the school's faculty or student body
Similarly, the Grant Application shall include the following information:
- Summary or Abstract
- Introduction
- Problem or Need Statement
- Realistic Objectives
- Methodology
- Evaluation (if necessary)
- Estimated Budget
As a stipulation of receiving a grant from us, candidates must agree to the following:
- All research related to the funded project is to be published in our Academic Journal
- All patents related to the funded project must be made publicly available, with no fees or charges
Lastly, our grant amounts are pre-determined. You will know how much the grant is for before the applications open. Be sure your budget amount is less than, but near to, the listed grant funding amount.
