Savit СÀ¶ÊÓÆµs

Savit СÀ¶ÊÓÆµs are recognized for work that promises to push disciplinary boundaries and create new space for creativity, expression and connection. Funding is provided, in part, by the Savit Family Endowment.

Since 2017, Savit СÀ¶ÊÓÆµs have expanded the possibilities for performance art, opened new ways of thinking about apparel design, produced a stage play from the testimonies of military veterans, created more interactive virtual reality experiences, opened inclusive spaces for LGBTQ+ athletes at CU СÀ¶ÊÓÆµ, pushed boundaries in art, film and more!

Selection

Savit СÀ¶ÊÓÆµs are selected annually from among the pool of UROP Student Grant applicants with priority given to projects with impact in the arts and humanities.
