Students must complete the CU 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó General Scholarship Application and the Arts & Sciences Scholarship Application in order to apply for and submit supplemental information forÌýdepartment-based scholarships. The application is open December 1 through March 15 for the following academic year. Currently, departmental scholarships in physics are only available for continuing students.

Conference Travel Funding

Undergraduate 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó Travel Award (for students presenting research)

Physics or engineering physics undergraduates traveling to present a paper or poster on their research at a conference in the United States can apply for an Undergraduate 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó Travel Award. Funding is provided through generous donations to the Jesse Kramer Undergraduate Travel Award Fund and the Uriel Nauenberg Undergraduate 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó Travel Award Fund.

Undergraduate Conference Travel Support (for students attending a conference)
