The University of Calgary-Shell Experiential Energy Learning (SEEL) Program provides up to $100,000 per year ($50,000 to individual students and $50,000 to student clubs, teams and associations) for activities and events focused on sustainable energy, environment and the economy. The program, supported by energy company Shell and administered by ISEEE, is to help enhance the learning experience for U of C undergraduate students in this area -- a top academic priority for the University.

Applications are judged by an evaluation committee that includes one student from each of the six key faculties and schools working with ISEEE. These are the Faculties of Environmental Design, Law, Science and Social Sciences, as well as the Schulilch School of Engineering and the Haskayne School of Business. One representative from Shell, the six faculties, and the U of C's Research Services is also on the evaluation committee.
