WISE can support student organizations that directly support WISE’s mission on campus. If your club wants to host a program, event, or other service that furthers gender equity in STEM at UM, you can apply for up to $500 of funding. This funding is offered on a rolling basis until the funds are depleted each year. No student group can receive more than $3000 in a given academic year. Apply here.
