Schlanger Ocean Drilling Fellowships
Joint Oceanographic Institutions (JOI) and the U.S. Science Advisory Committee are seeking Ph.D. and M.S. degree candidates of unusual promise and ability who are enrolled at U.S. institutions to conduct research compatible with that of the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP). April 15, 2002 is the next fellowship application deadline for both shipboard and shorebased research proposals. Shipboard research is related to future ODP legs on which the students sail as scientists. Shorebased research may be based on any DSDP or ODP leg - past, present, or future.
The applicant's proposed research may be directed toward the objectives of a specific leg or toward broader themes.Shipboard proposals submitted for this deadline should be based on one of the upcoming cruises during ODP's final year of operation: Leg 206 Fast Spreading Crust, Leg 207 Demerara Rise, Leg 208 Walvis Ridge, Leg 209 MAR Peridotite, and Leg 210 Newfoundland Margin.Cruise information can be found at www-odp.tamu.edu/sched.html. Shipboard fellowship candidates must also apply to the ODP Manager of Science Services in College Station, TX. Shipboard scientist applications can be found at www-odp.tamu.edu/sciops/cruise_application_info.html Students may apply for either one- or two-year awards, although two-year fellowships depend on the availability of funds and are only rarely given.
The award is $23,000 per year to be used for stipend, tuition, benefits, research costs and incidental travel. For a fellowship application and more information, visit Joiscience.org fellowship information.
