Student Project Fund

Case Western Reserve University students working on a robotics project at think[box]

Application Closed

Applications for the Sears think[box] Student Project Fund will remain closed for the 2024-25 academic year. This temporary pause will allow us to assess and improve participant support, collect valuable feedback from past participants, and build a better program going forward. 

We look forward to launching a refreshed version of the Student Project Fund next year.

Are you a student looking for financial support to purchase materials to use at think[box]? Consider applying to the Student Project Fund at Sears think[box].

Open to undergraduate and graduate students from Case Western Reserve University, the Student Project Fund supports the following: 

  • Individual and team-based extracurricular and personal projects.

Please note the fund does NOT support course-related or research projects.
