The PURA Salary Awards offer a $1,500 stipend to undergraduate students who are conducting research under the supervision and mentorship of a Georgia Tech or Georgia Tech Research Institute faculty member. The proposal consists of 2 parts: Part 1 is a 2-page project description, which must be written by the student, and Part 2 is a 1-page statement of mentor/mentee expectations, which the student should develop in consultation with their faculty mentor.

Please note: the mentor/mentee expectations statement is a change from previous PURA Salary Award application cycles. The statement is an important part of the application, and students should set aside time to discuss it with their faculty mentor. See below for more information about this component of the application.

Students: Please read all rules, eligibility requirements, and application procedures below before applying. Be sure to share this information with your mentor.
