MBBI grants support research and events that enhance scholarship, teaching, and student involvement related to mind, brain, or behavior. The MBB Scholars Program promotes high-caliber research collaboration that identifies and develops excellent students from diverse backgrounds.

Sponsored Funding Though most of Harvard's sponsored portfolio comes from federal sponsors, funding has also been received from non-federal sponsors, including foundations, institutes, and internal awards managed through Harvard (to name a few). Foreign entities also provide support.

MBB offers awards to help graduate students better understand MBB-related issues by engaging in interdisciplinary experiences. The maximum award amount is $10,000, but most awards for research will not exceed $5,000.

Mind, Brain, & Behavior A key learning objective is for students to have a deeper understanding of the interdisciplinary nature of cognitive science, and develop the ability to think and write critically about scientific research addressing mind-brain relationships.
