Grants for Student Researchers
Valparaiso University offers a few different grants for student researchers. These grants are administered by the Creative Work and Research Committee.
Research Symposia
Each year, Valparaiso University hosts symposia to showcase student research. Student researchers prepare posters and presentations explaining their work while students with creative projects prepare exhibits or performances.
SOURCE is held at the end of the Spring semester. Similar events are held during the Fall semester (FIReS) and the Summer term (SIReS)
Faculty-Led Research
Many Valpo faculty members obtain grant funding to support their research. These projects typically include opportunities for students to serve as research assistants, gaining valuable experience to supplement classroom lessons.
Students interested in working on a faculty-led project should contact faculty in their department.
