The 2015-2016 Albert, Norma and Howard Geller ’77 Endowed Research Awards for Projects Relating to Sustainability

The George Perkins Marsh Institute announces the Geller Student Research Award Competition for 2015-2016. Established by the family of Dr. Howard Geller ’77, these 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 or 4 awards of $1,001 to $2,500, and several smaller grants, up to $1,000. The committee intends to award at least one-third of regular and small awards to undergraduate projects, subject to the number and quality of applications received.

Applications must be submitted by students.

The deadline for applications is October 23, 2015 at 4:30 p.m., EST. Click here for details.
