Apply for an URN Travel Grant and Celebrate Peace Corps Week

Apply for an URN Travel Grant
Applications accepted on a rolling basis.

Looking for funding to present your research at a conference? Look no further. The Undergraduate Research Network has funding for students to attend research conferences. This grant is designed to provide funding for travel, lodging, and meals related to a research conference or workshop. Students must be presenting at the conference or workshop to be eligible. This event may be at another institution, but the grant will only apply to domestic travel. Approximately two to three awards of up to $300 will be granted on a competitive basis. Applicants must be full-time undergraduate students at UVA. For more information, visit this website or email Sabrina Yen at syy4cb@virginia.edu
