Arch and Fran Diack Student Field Research Award

The Arch and Fran Diack Student Field Research Award is an endowed fund administered by the Biology Department at 果酱视频. The fund was established by the Diacks to encourage students in their aspirations and efforts to understand the natural world. Awards support student activities directed towards independent field research and encourage original contributions by students to scientific problems.

Students in ALL academic disciplines are encouraged to submit proposals for projects of their own design and completion. A list of previous project awards is provided below.

The stipend may also be used to participate in an established field research program (O.T.S., Rocky Mountain Biological Lab, etc.).

Information about this fellowship and the application procedure can be obtained from Dr. Keith Karoly (Biology Dept.) or from the Chair of the Biology Department.

APPLICATION PROCESS

Applications for the Arch and Fran Diack Research Fellowship should be submitted to Kristy Gonyer (B115), Biology Administrative Coordinator according to the annual deadline posted on the application form.
