Congratulations to the eight undergraduates awarded UConn IDEA Grants in the fall 2023 funding cycle! The award recipients represent a range of disciplines, from chemistry to history, healthcare management to mathematics, and will spend their summer conducting independent research in the U.S. and abroad, designing prototypes, and developing content that will inform and engage the campus community.

Special thanks to the faculty and staff who supported student applications to the UConn IDEA Grant program and to those who will be mentoring the award recipients as they complete their projects. This program would not be possible without your support.

Undergraduates in all majors at all UConn campuses can apply. Applications are accepted twice per year from individuals and from small groups who plan to work collaboratively on a project.
