In order to enhance the diversity of students conducting research and increase the participation of underrepresented populations in the UGRP, the School/University Partnership office (SUPO) has partnered with the UGRP to provide additional funding for faculty to hire student reseachers who graduated from public school academies (PSA) supported by SUPO. For a complete list of PSAs, click on http://www.svsu.edu/supo/ourschools/. 

To be eligible for this funding, faculty should state your intent to hire a PSA student in your application. You should also identify your intent to hire a PSA student in your responses to relevant questions when submitting application to InfoReady Review.
