The Arts, Science + Culture Graduate Collaboration Grants encourage independent trans-disciplinary research between students in the arts, social sciences, and the sciences. Each group consists of two or more graduate students, with at least one in the arts and one in either science or social sciences, who work together over the course of the academic year to investigate a subject from the perspectives offered by their disciplines. Funding for the Arts, Science + Culture Graduate Collaboration Grants comes from the Office of the Provost and the Institute of Molecular Engineering at the University of Chicago.
