Undergraduate Research & Fellowships

Undergraduate Research & Fellowships (URAF) is your hub for information about NTC grants, research opportunities, non-Tulane funding (fellowships, scholarships, grants, and awards), and the support you need to be competitive when applying for them. Are you interested in teaching, studying, or conducting research around the world? Do you want a fully-funded graduate education? Are you eager to develop new skills via hands-on learning opportunities? If yes, let's talk!

Our Mission and Values

We serve to inform the Tulane community that research, grants, scholarship/fellowship opportunities exist for every interest, field of study, and demographic, and all are welcome to engage with us to explore pathways to enhance and reach their goals.
 

We empower students who undertake the application process to use it to self-reflect, hone communication skills, and build conduits to their future selves, regardless of competition outcomes.
 

The URAF provides students with growth-focused direction and assistance. We accompany and build rapport to better envision new outcomes and to open paths for reaching them.
