Xi
Description:
Sigma
Xi, a society of research scientists and engineers that rewards excellence in
research and cooperation among scientists in all fields, has been providing
undergraduate and graduate students with valuable educational experiences and
financial support since 1922. By encouraging close working relationships
between students and faculty, the society promotes scientific achievement
through hands-on learning.
Through
the Sigma Xi Grants-in-Aid of Research program, the society awards grants of up
to $1,000 to undergraduate and graduate students in most areas of the sciences
and engineering. Designated funds from the National Academy of Sciences allow
for grants of up to $5,000 for astronomy research and $2,500 for vision-related
research. Funding may support travel expenses or non-standard laboratory
equipment necessary to complete a specific research
project.
While
membership in Sigma Xi is not a requirement to apply for a grant, applicants
are strongly encouraged to consider becoming a member prior to the grant
application deadline.
