Morse College Mellon Senior Research Grant

The Mellon Senior Research Grants are intended for seniors to support their senior essays/projects or analogous forms of research and independent study. Each qualifying student may apply for up to $500 in research support.

Research must take place during the academic year and awardees must present the results of their research either to the Senior Mellon Forum or to another educational forum in the college. It is also important that each application for the research award include the approval of a faculty advisor who will supervise the research project.

Each college has a formal application process for its students to select awardees for the research grants. Each college determines its own schedule for accepting applications and for student presentations. Please contact the Head of College Office for this information.

For current research and travel guidelines please read through https://covid19.yale.edu/health-guidelines before making your application.

Application Information: The application will include a section to provide a brief description of your project and how you will use the funding. Provide a faculty advisor reference stipulating your project/essay.
