Funding Transformative Scholarly Projects

The Office of Undergraduate Research and Creative Activities (URCA) at the College of Charleston supports student research and creative activities by providing competitive grants to fund summer project costs and stipends, academic year project costs, and travel to conferences for undergraduate students and their faculty mentors. Participation in a challenging, scholarly project can be the single most important experience that a student will have in college and the training and knowledge from this experience is often a deciding factor in the acquisition of professional positions and acceptance into post-graduate programs.
