CAS Undergraduate Research Grant Program
Research and scholarly work are important components of our excellent undergraduate programs. The College of Arts and Sciences (CAS) supports undergraduate research and scholarly activities through its Undergraduate Research Grant program (URG). This program encourages CAS undergraduate students from all disciplines to participate in and disseminate independent research and scholarly and creative activities under the mentorship of an AUS faculty member.
Student Eligibility
Students who wish to apply to the program must be full-time, continuing CAS undergraduate students in good standing (both academic and disciplinary). URG-approved projects must be completed while students are enrolled as full-time undergraduate students at AUS.
Types of Research Projects
Individual or group projects may be submitted to the CAS-URG program. An individual project is conducted by a single student who will be the primary applicant to the program. A group project is conducted by a group of students with a maximum number of four members. The primary applicant in the group project must be a CAS student.
Application Cycles
Eligible CAS students can apply to the URG program by week five of every fall or spring semester. Applications are evaluated by a college committee, and applicants are notified of the decision within two weeks of the application submission deadline.
