Financial Assistance
We hope your district will support this very valuable professional development opportunity.
We offer a varying amount of partial ($300) or full ($600) fellowships to teachers from districts that cannot afford to completely fund participation in the daVinci program. These fellowships are funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) or the UConn School of Engineering.
A fellowship award is not paid to the participant, but rather reduces the participant's cost of attendance.
