opportunity for undergraduate students at the university of alberta

Access funding for an undergraduate researcher

The URI’s Undergraduate Researcher Stipend enables undergraduate students to carry out mentored, interdisciplinary research projects.

If you want to supervise a student who would be a good fit, you can help them apply for a $6,000 stipend. Of particular note to sustainability researchers, certain funds are reserved for:

  • campus-based sustainability research
  • projects supervised by a Future Energy Systems researcher
  • projects supervised by a Faculty of ALES researcher
  • social justice research

The next deadline is Feb. 25, 2021 for all projects taking place between May 2021–April 2022. To learn more visit the URI Undergraduate Researcher Stipend webpage
