Trewartha Senior Honors Thesis Research Grant at University of Wisconsin 2025

 The Trewartha Senior Honors Thesis Research Grant enables L&S Honors Program students to undertake more demanding and extensive senior Honors thesis research projects than might otherwise be possible by providing scholarship funding during the academic year. Grants are generously provided through the Trewartha Honors Undergraduate Research Fund, established in 1969 by Professor Glen T. Trewartha and Mrs. Trewartha and supported by additional gifts from friends and family.

Trewartha Research Grant recipients receive $1,500.
