Upcoming Deadlines
The Global Sustainability Scholars (GSS) - Scholars Program Deadline
Date and Time
Wednesday, January 29, 2025
Description
The Global Sustainability Scholars program brings together talented undergraduates for a paid summer immersive experience, where students travel abroad, conduct research, and build their professional network in real-world sustainability issues.
Each year we select undergraduates to join a GSS cohort and the larger international sustainability solutions community. Scholars get paid over two summers while focusing their training and research on a theme within Sustainability.
Scholars Projects
10 weeks to explore research opportunities, policy options and potential solutions to critical sustainability challenges within the context of three different countries (i.e. countries within Africa, Europe, and North America). Scholars will come together as a cohort for one week of orientation, then travel in teams to different research projects (**some research can be done remotely). The goal of year one is to build a network with professionals and organizations, build a peer network, learn how to do trans-disciplinary knowledge generation, and begin research. Scholars are paid $600 week for their participation and all travel and accommodation covered by the GSS program.
GSS Scholars must be in their third year of study (Juniors) of undergraduate studies, currently enrolled, in good standing academically, and working toward their first undergraduate degree in sustainability sciences or related fields.
GSS Scholars must be U.S. citizens and have the proper legal documentation to travel abroad (passport).
This event has been tagged as fellowships.
