The George Perkins Marsh Institute announces the Geller Student Research Award Competition for 2014-2015. The awards were established by the family of Dr. Howard Geller ’77. Geller Student Research Awards are intended to support student-initiated research projects that advance our understanding of sustainability in the human use of resources and the environment.
Both undergraduate and graduate students are eligible for awards. We anticipate making 3-4 awards in amounts ranging from $1,001 to $2,500, and several smaller grants, up to $1,000. It is the intention of the committee to award at least one-third of regular and small awards to undergraduate projects, again subject to the number and quality of applications received.
Applications must be submitted by students. The deadline for applications is October 27, 2014 at 4:30pm, EST. See attached program announcement for details.
Questions should be directed to Robert J. Johnston, Director of the George Perkins Marsh Institute.
