| AQ Student Senate Research Foundation |
| The Foundation provides a formal mechanism to financially support and encourage scholarly student research in a variety of areas of undergraduate study. It creates opportunities for unique and fulfilling collaborations between professors and students by providing grants to support necessary travel, research, data collection, lab expenses, and experiments. Grants are also available to defray travel expenses associated with presenting research at academic conferences. In short, the goal is to make true scholarly exploration accessible to students who can’t afford to subsidize it on their own. |
