Apply for a summer research award
Michael J. Keen Award
The Keen Award provides stipend funding for a female undergraduate student summer research experience in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences similar to an NSERC USRA. The successful student will work closely with a supervisor in the Department with the goal of exposing the student to scientific research work in general and to specific research in the field of Earth and Environmental Sciences.
The tenure of the award runs from June 1 to August 31, 2023.
