ICEO Grants

Twice a year, the ICEO offers funding for events and programs that support our community in any or all of these themes:

  • Promoting a sense of belonging
  • Enabling achievement
  • Expanding our campus composition

These three pillars support the goals of the Strategic Action Plan.

Awards of up to $2,500 are available to any MIT community member.

 

Application Process

There are two grant cycles each academic year:

  • Cycle 1: Application opens October 15 at 12:00am, and closes November 1 at 11:59pm.
  • Cycle 2: Application opens February 15 at 12:00am, and closes March 1 at 11:59pm
