Dean's Funding Application
The Dean provides funding for worthy undergraduate student projects and events. These can be individual, group or club projects and events. Projects and events funded in the past include:
- Individual Project
- Club event
- Group Project
- Conference/committee participation
Funding is awarded based the information submitted on the application. Students should make every attempt to solicit funds from their departments prior to requesting money from the Dean.
If your team/club receives any funding from the Dean, please submit a written update to him at the conclusion of the academic year (June). This report should briefly detail how the funds were ultimately used as well as provide the Dean with an update on the competition entered or event in which the team/club participated. ANY and ALL future funding from the Dean will be contingent upon the Dean receiving this report. You can use these examples of recent reports to help format/create your report (requires the free Adobe Reader):
