Applications Sought for I-CREWS Seed Funding Program
I-CREWS Seed Funding allows the program to respond to new opportunities and/or pursue high-risk, high-impact research projects. Two sizes of awards (small and large) are divided into two categories, all directly related to Energy-Water challenges. One category is Convergence Research and Education, open to any qualifying team or research partnership in Idaho. This category includes projects driven by a compelling problem that demonstrates integration across disciplines (nonacademic collaboration is optional). The other category focuses on community-engaged collaboration to support co-produced research and education outcomes with communities (including Tribal representatives) through integration and co-production using local knowledge.

The College of Science and Engineering Dean's Excellence Fund is intended to support students in their journey through ISU. The Dean's Office is particularly interested in providing financial assistance to students who might not be able to enroll in or complete the semester because of short-term financial hardships. Students seeking such support should be in good academic standing.
If you know of a student who is in need of short-term support, please have them complete this form.
