The University of Florida College of the Arts (COTA) graduate research award empowers students to pursue research activities, develop as artists and/or art educators and connect with others in the field.
We strive to offer support for a wide range of opportunities. Students in UF’s online Art Education Master’s program can apply for this award to help cover expenses related to attending and presenting at conferences, conducting research or fieldwork, and other forms of professional development.
