Grant Funded Student Stipends
Many departments offer an additional source of funding to students in the form of stipends. Stipends to students may be awarded after the completion of some service, (e.g. participation in a mentorship program), or they may be based on other criteria established by the department, (e.g. academic merit). The funds for many of these stipend payments come from grants.
The Office of Research and Sponsored Programs is fiscally responsible for ensuring grant Project Directors stay within their budget and are in compliance with grant rules and regulations.
Financial Aid and Student Accounting Responsibilities
