Purpose:
The purpose of these awards
is to encourage scholarship among undergraduate students at UNCW.
Undergraduate students may apply for funds to assist with scholarly
research travel and travel to professional conferences. All students
must have a faculty sponsor and faculty members must accompany students receiving awards for travel to professional conferences.
Award Amount & Limitations:
Individuals are eligible for one award per academic year, regardless of amount of award. Funds are allotted for entire academic year - requests will be reviewed until funds are exhausted, so students planning on spring or summer conference travel should submit applications as soon as possible to ensure availability of funds. All reimbursements will be processed through the Honors office, but travel forms must originate in the home departments. See your departmental office about necessary travel forms before traveling. Applicants must retain all appropriate receipts for reimbursement.
Students may apply for the following:
