Broughton Spark Award

The Broughton Spark Award was established to assist South Dakota Mines students in building/making/developing prototypes to validate their product ideas and/or business plans. Awards typically range from $500 - $1500, but larger awards could be granted based on the merit of the project. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis until all money is allocated. The award will fund anything from developing software, to building prototypes, to testing the product.
