Mission

Discover New Horizons with the Student Senate’s Travel & Material Awards! 

At Claremont Graduate University, we understand the importance of supporting our graduate students’ academic and professional growth. That’s why the Student Senate is thrilled to announce the annual Student Senate Travel Awards and Material Awards Programs. 

The Student Senate Travel Awards Program aims to empower our students to excel beyond our campus. We recognize that attending conferences, presenting research, and pursuing projects outside the university can incur significant costs. To ensure our students have the opportunity to gain invaluable professional experience, the Senate allocates funds to subsidize travel expenses for as many students as possible. 

Moreover, the Material Awards Program is designed to further encourage academic excellence by providing reimbursement for material costs associated with academic endeavors. We understand that research and projects often require resources, and we aim to ease the financial burden for our dedicated students. 

We are happy to assist and answer any questions you may have. Please feel free to reach out to us to let us know how we can help.
