The Keller Center is pleased to announce for the 2009-10 academic year, the availability of two funds to support (a) "engineering students pursuing projects that offer exposure to engineering applications outside the classroom," and (b) "engineering students pursuing projects that combine engineering and policy".

Made possible by the Norman D. Kurtz '58 Fund for Innovation in Engineering Education and the Eugene Wong '55 Fund for Engineering and Policy, students (either as individuals or in groups) can apply for funding.

·         Funding is open to all School of Engineering and Applied Science students

·         Students require the support and supervision of a faculty adviser

·         Applications MUST be submitted no later than November 13, 2009

 

To get an idea of the kinds of projects that were funded in the past, see this list of projects supported by the Kurtz '58 Fund from the 2008-09 academic year.
