Established in 2017, the Arts and Science Research Fund (ASURF) was implemented to foster a community amongst undergraduate scholars and promote a greater investment in undergraduate research. The Faculty of Arts and Science has pledged to match all of the funds raised by the $3.75 opt-out student fee. This meant that in 2021-2022 academic year, $64,450 was awarded to 27 undergraduate student researchers.

Through this partnership between ASUS and the Faculty of Arts and Science, ASURF will assist in funding research projects at the undergraduate level. This fund is open to undergraduate research of all kinds and creativity is encouraged, no project is too small or too large. This fund will support research in all ways from necessary materials for an experiment to travel expenses to poster printing fees — the goal is to make pursuing one’s passions in research accessible to all students.
