Alternative Source of Funding For Graduate Dissertations

About us

About Thesis Equity

Thesis Equity is a platform for graduate students to utilize crowdfunding and corporate sponsorships to fund their dissertation.

Thesis Equity was started by two graduate Economic students who struggled to get sufficient funding through the traditional avenues of research grants and University resources. Our struggle stemmed from the fact that research funding demand is greatly outpacing the supply, so we decided to provide an additional funding source for students.

We believe that having an exceptional research topic is not enough. Sufficient funding is vital for student dissertations to reach their full potential and we are here to provide precisely that.

Value

Thesis Eqity was started by students for students and we only succeed if you succeed. In essence, we know graduate students do not compete for funding on a level playing field.

The importance of a research topic is not the only factor that affects funding
opportunities. Factors such as geographical location, partisanship and institutional
resources affect the dispersion of the funding opportunities and we hope crowdfunding
your research will minimize this gap.
At Thesis Equity we want to support graduate students in every country around the
globe. We believe that great ideas are not constrained to specific universities or geographical locations. We believe a good idea/topic should be supported no matter what.

Step Process To Get Funding Through Thesis Equity

1. If you are a graduate student (either Masters or PhD) at a certified university, you will fill out our Dissertation Funding Form (DFF) and send it to
ThesisEquity.Dissertation@gmail.com

The DFF form will ask background questions regarding your interest in the
research topic, the importance of your topic and what you hope to achieve with your research. Additionally the
form will ask you if you are interested in Corporate sponsorships and if there are any particular businesses that you believe will be interested in your research. (This portion is optional,
but if you believe a company may be interested in your research, a team at Thesis Equity can reach out to the businesses and create an introduction to see if there is a mutual interest.)
2. Once we receive your form we at Theis Equity will use third party
sources to confirm that you are an official student at your specified University and that you are the individual you claim to be. (This process can take up to 10 business days once we receive your DFF).
3. Once we have confirmed your identity/enrollment you will then be able to upload a 2 min video describing your dissertation topic, the amount of capital you hope to achieve and a detailed plan to do with
that capital. (Additionally we recommend that you upload a timeline of what deadlines you hope to keep and update it with your progress.)
4. If you are successful and reach your funding goals (either through crowdfunding or from corporate sponsorship), we will disperse the funds through a digital payment method of your choosing.
(Please note Thesis Equity takes 2% of the raised funds as an origination fee.)
5.If you are unsuccessful at raising the desired fund amount, the money raised will be returned to the donors and corporations. You may feel free to revise your video/statement/topic and apply once again
to try and raise the required capital.
(Please note if you are reapplying, please state what has changed regarding your funding strategy, research topic or any other factor that will make you more successful at raising the required funds.)
