Fellowship funding for both undergraduate and graduate student environmental study that could be applied to green chemistry is also available.
Funding for small businesses
Funding is available to small businesses under EPA's Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) Program.
Many other government agencies offer SBIR funding for green chemistry technologies.
Funding is available for small businesses and research institutions working together under the Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Program.
