Initiatives

The Graduate Student Center at CSUB is proud to offer $1,500 awards to those students whose project proposals are chosen for funding. The goals of the initiatives are to increase student enrollment and retention in all graduate and post baccalaureate programs across CSUB, by providing modest financial assistance to students, and involve them in a close working relationships with their mentor. Their mentor also receives a monetary award of $500 for their involvement. Click here for application.

Another focus of the initiatives is to encourage student research, and integrate students into CSUB's service region through opportunities for community engagement. In addition, the initiatives provide increased opportunities for students to gain college level teaching experiences.

Please read through our first round of Initiatives Award Recipients' project proposals. Competition was fierce, and these students should be proud of the caliber of their proposals.
