Student Activities Grants, administered by New York University’s Office of the Provost, support course-associated activities outside the classroom. The program enables faculty to create academically enriching experiences for students by drawing on NYU’s connections to New York City.
The program focuses on the relationship between coursework and the city. Supported experiences remain connected to the courses students take while providing opportunities to engage with their studies beyond the classroom. Rather than funding student activities independently of academic study, these grants help faculty bring New York City connections into the context of students’ coursework.
