Applications Accepted on a Rolling Basis

The Harry Bridges Center for Labor Studies is excited to offer funding to Undergraduate Students seeking to conduct research, fund projects, travel to conferences or events, or contribute to broader community endeavors around labor and social justice. Amounts of $250-$350 are available to students who apply, and funding can be used for a broad range of research expenses (travel costs, materials, interview incentives, etc.). 

If you are an Undergraduate Student that is interested in conducting a research project, but are unsure of what may be possible, or would like to explore a variety of research topics, please do not hesitate to reach out! We are happy to help you craft your project and let you know of what resources are out there. Please reach out to Yasmin Ahmed, Assistant Director of Student and Community Engagement, at ypahmed@uw.edu or (206) 542-7537 with any questions or to schedule an appointment.
