RESEARCH GRANTS
DOSECC GRANT PROGRAM

DOSECC (Drilling, Observation and Sampling of the Earth’s Continental Crust) invites students and teachers to apply for summer 2010 grants in scientific drilling. The grants promote student involvement in projects where drilling has provided data and materials for study, and are available to college students (graduate or undergraduate) and primary and secondary schoolteachers, worldwide. Awardees can undertake research related to ongoing or past drilling efforts. Applicants do not have to be attending a DOSECC Member Institution to be considered for this award. Grant funding will be available in the summer of 2010 and budgets of $2,000 to $5,000 are appropriate. Applications must be received by March 1, 2010 and awardees will be announced April 1, 2010. For additional information consult www.dosecc.org/html/internship.html, or e-mail David Zur, DOSECC's Education and Outreach Manager at dzur@dosecc.org.
