You can apply for Bates funding to support research you conduct on campus (about 50 to 60 student researchers work on campus each summer); with a research advisor at another institution; or on your own, under the guidance of a Bates advisor.\u00a0 Through summer research, you will make contributions to new knowledge, hone your research skills, and explore the intellectual and professional opportunities in your field.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bates-shortcodes-btn btn-wrap\" id=\"27a7ac04-ff24-4065-bc56-d980741b5afa\"><div class=\"btn-action\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-controls=\"27a7ac04-ff24-4065-bc56-d980741b5afa\" aria-pressed=\"false\" aria-expanded=\"false\"><h3 class=\"btn-title\">Student Research Resources<\/h3><div class=\"btn-arrow\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"btn-content\" id=\"27a7ac04-ff24-4065-bc56-d980741b5afa\">\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/academics\/files\/2022\/01\/Grant-Writing-Guide-2022.pdf\">Tips for Preparing a Strong Grant Proposal<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=0wbsU_8HkCk\">Grant Writing Video Workshop<\/a> &#8211; This one-hour workshop recorded in January 2022 offers tips and strategies for preparing an effective grant proposal<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/academics\/files\/2023\/12\/Budget-Template.pdf\"><strong>Budget Proposal Template<\/strong><\/a> &#8211; <strong>Use this to create and attach your budget to your final proposal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more complete information, please visit this comprehensive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/academics\/student-research-resources\/\"><strong>Student Research Resources <\/strong><\/a>site. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bates-shortcodes-btn btn-wrap\" id=\"9605a1cd-3e3b-40e2-b66d-d1dbf83b7e81\"><div class=\"btn-action\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-controls=\"9605a1cd-3e3b-40e2-b66d-d1dbf83b7e81\" aria-pressed=\"false\" aria-expanded=\"false\"><h3 class=\"btn-title\">Grants and Fellowships Available<\/h3><div class=\"btn-arrow\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"btn-content\" id=\"9605a1cd-3e3b-40e2-b66d-d1dbf83b7e81\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/academics\/student-research\/summer-grants-summary\/bouley-fund-for-geology\/\">Bouley-Creasy Fund for Earth and Climate Sciences<\/a>: <\/strong>support for senior thesis research<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/academics\/student-research\/summer-grants-summary\/hoffman-research-support-grant\/\">Hoffman Research Support Grant<\/a>: <\/strong>for short-term summer research projects or to support summer research travel or supplies<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/academics\/student-research\/summer\/bates-environmental-internship\/\">Bates&nbsp;Environmental Internships<\/a>:<\/strong> support for students with summer internships with environmental organizations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/academics\/student-research\/summer-grants-summary\/otis\/\">Otis Fellowships<\/a>:&nbsp;<\/strong>support major projects in which students explore the relationship of people and their environments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/academics\/student-research\/summer-grants-summary\/phillips-student-fellowships\/\">Phillips Student Fellowships<\/a>:<\/strong> support major cross-cultural exploration projects focused on research, community engagement, the arts, or career exploration<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/academics\/student-research\/summer\/summer-research-fellowships\/\">Summer Research Fellowships<\/a>:&nbsp;<\/strong>support students conducting research in all disciplines, on campus or off campus, with a Bates advisor or an advisor from another research site<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/academics\/student-research\/summer-grants-summary\/technos-international-week-in-japan\/\">Technos International Week in Japan<\/a><\/strong>: supports two students and a faculty member to experience two weeks in Japan during Technos International Week<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Interested in working with a specific faculty member?
