We have great news! Research Week 4.0 will feature seed grant competitions.
Hosted by the Office of Research, WSU’s fourth annual Research Week will be held October 12-16. Several sessions this year will focus on seed grant competitions to support individual and team research development. All competitions require written applications (Phase 1). Applicants selected to move on to Phase 2 will give an oral presentation of their ideas at their respective sessions during Research Week. After the presentations, a panel of judges will select the winners. The winners will also be officially recognized during the awards ceremony on October 16.
Competitions include:
