Undergraduate Research Fund Application

Students may request funding for senior theses and for other proposals emphasizing original research that is directly supervised by a Tufts faculty member. You may request funding for  expenses such as supplies, travel, library cards, and payment of research subjects. The fund will support travel to a conference if you are presenting research, but we cannot reimburse you for meals. We cannot support students to attend conferences if they are not presenting research.

However, thesis binding, the purchase of computers or other durable goods, the purchase of books available from Tisch library or ILL, textbooks or supplies for a course, or payment of a salary are expenses that would not normally be granted. The fund will not support your participation in educational programs and seminars sponsored by other institutions. Note: SMFA students cannot receive funding from the Undergraduate Research Funds and the SMFA Dean's Research Award.
