Student Research Fund
The Otterbein Student Research Fund (SRF) provides support to encourage research and creative work among current Otterbein undergraduate and graduate students. To be funded, student research projects must be consistent with the definition and standards of scholarship established by the academic department associated with a project’s discipline. There are two types of grant offered:
- The SRF-Research Grants provide up to $400 for costs associated with research and other scholarly or creative endeavors.
- The SRF-Presentation Grants provide up to $400 for costs associated with travel to a conference to present research or creative work.
Applications for both grant types are evaluated by the Student Research Fund Committee three times through the Academic Year. For more information, including details on how to apply and deadlines, visit our Student Research Fund page.
