Here at Campbell Scientific, we recognize that accurate measurements are key to scientific research and to the development and application of technology. From the beginning, we have been an advocate of high measurement quality, as demonstrated by our product engineering and customer support.

As part of our focus on making good measurements, we are pleased to sponsor the Campbell Scientific IMAGINE Grant, a grant program created to provide quality measurement instruments for use in graduate or undergraduate coursework.

The objective of the Illuminating Measurements and Guiding Instructional Excellence (IMAGINE) Grant is to provide instruments for the education of students in hands-on, interactive classes that focus on teaching about sensors, instruments, and how measurements are made.

The program guidelines can be found below.
