How to Apply for IEEE TryEngineering STEM Grants

This session is designed to guide IEEE SIGHT participants and student volunteers through the process of applying for IEEE TryEngineering STEM Grants. Participants will gain an understanding of the grant programme, learn how to identify suitable STEM outreach opportunities within their communities, and understand how to develop a well-structured and competitive grant proposal. The session will also provide practical guidance on key application components, including defining project goals and objectives, planning activities and timelines, preparing a realistic budget, and developing evaluation and sustainability strategies. By the end of the session, participants should have a clearer understanding of how to transform STEM outreach ideas into fundable project proposals that can support meaningful STEM learning experiences for young people.
