UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Penn State’s Energy and Environmental Sustainability Laboratories (EESL) announced a call for proposals for seed grant funding that will support energy and environmental research conducted in EESL facilities. The call is open to undergraduate and graduate students at any Penn State campus.
The goal of the call is to encourage Penn State students who are interested in conducting energy or environmental research.
“EESL wants to help students, both undergraduate and graduate, learn how to formulate their research questions, sharpen their proposal- and report-writing skills, but most importantly, support their analytical needs in the fields of energy and environmental sustainability by offering needed funding,” said Odette Mina, managing director of EESL.
Up to $2,500 is available for accepted proposals, which are due by Jan. 15, 2019. All of the details and requirements are available at https://psu.infoready4.com/#competitionDetail/1779866.
