CSE Grants and Awards for Climate Work

CSE seeks to support the climate efforts already being undertaken by students and student organizations across the College of Engineering and the University. In addition to the DEI Service Award for both Graduate and Undergraduate Students, CSE has launched a new initiative to financially support these efforts in the form of “Excellence in Creating Inclusivity” Grants. Our hope is that these grants will allow student organizations to access more resources and increase the capacity of existing programs.

These grants are available for mentorship and wellness programs as well as initiatives that aim to increase diversity. Student organizations can find out more information and apply on this document.
