Dear colleagues,
I intended to send the link to the NRS Field Science Fellowship overview page (https://ucnrs.org/research/field-science-fellowship) instead
of the detailed information on program eligibility and the application process. My apologies!
Erin

Subject: NRS Field Science Fellowship Application Deadline Feb. 7th
Dear UC Community,
We'd like to remind you that the application deadline for this year's Field
Science Fellowship, a new undergraduate research program sponsored by the University of California Natural Reserve System (NRS), is
February 7, 2020.
The NRS Field Science Fellowship provides financial support to UC undergraduate-faculty teams conducting scientific research in the field at NRS
reserves. The fellowships enable students to focus on gaining valuable hands-on research experience under the guidance of a faculty researcher. Each $6,000 award consists of a $5,000 student stipend and $1,000 to cover project costs. A maximum of
$24,000 will be awarded annually.
Projects enabling the student to perform full-time research over the summer are preferred. However, we will also consider proposals that explain why the
research must be conducted during another season, and how the student will be able to accomplish the research while enrolled in classes during the academic year.
Funding for the Field Science Fellowships are made possible through the Samuelsen
Conservation Scholars Initiative.
Access and inclusion
All applications are welcomed and will be considered. We especially invite applications from students from ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds historically
underrepresented in the sciences, including but not limited to African-American, Latinx, Native American, Pacific Islander, and first-generation college students.
Application information
Eligibility requirements, evaluation criteria, and complete application information can be found here.
Please distribute this email widely and share this exciting program with students and faculty who may be interested. I’ve attached a program flyer for
you to print and post. Additional flyers can be found here. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.
Thanks so much,
Erin
