STEAMpower Fellows

The STEAMpower Project is looking for graduate student fellows and faculty/staff-led teams that are interested in exploring the intersection of STEM and the arts/humanities. The theme for this year’s projects is sustainability. 

STEM: science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and similar fields

Arts: branches of creative activity inclusive of painting, music, literature, dance, theater, performance art, and similar fields

Theme: Sustainability. At its most basic sustainability focuses on ecological, human, societal, and economic health. Sustainability can encompass many dimensions of human society and expression as well as the natural world. From art to architecture, language to science, every discipline has its own sustainable practices, materials, or norms as well as imperatives for promoting sustainability. How can you create work at the intersection of STEM and arts to explore and or convey what it means to be sustainable? How might you influence the world that will be left when we, as individuals, are gone? 

Graduate Fellows will earn $4,000 for participation during the academic year 2023-24, and Faculty/Staff-led Teams can access up to $20,000 for their interdisciplinary project over 2023-24.

Applications are due Aug. 22nd.
