Graduate students at the University of Delaware whose research involves climate change, in any academic discipline, can apply for up to $10,000 in funding from the Gerard J. Mangone Climate Change Science and Policy Hub. For priority consideration for research being done in spring or summer of 2022, please apply by Wednesday, Feb. 15, 2022.

The Graduate Research Enhancement Grants from the Climate Change Hub will support thesis or dissertation research expenses necessary for degree completion. Students with completed thesis or dissertation proposals can apply. The research supported must occur in 2022-23, and funds can support travel, data collection, data processing, and publications, but may not be used for salary, indirect costs or tuition.

To apply, students must submit a curriculum vitae, an unofficial transcript, a one- to two-page proposal identifying specific research goals and how the funding will advance their thesis or doctoral research, and a budget detailing how the money will be used. Those documents can be emailed to climatechangehub@udel.edu with the subject ‘Graduate Research Grant Application.’
