| Description: | The US Geological Survey�s National Climate Change and Wildlife Science Center (NCCWSC), is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research to support the project entitled �Science to Action Fellowship.�
The funding opportunity is being offered to develop a fellowship experience to expose students to the NCCWSC and also to support them in developing a policy-relevant product related to the impacts of climate change on fish and/or wildlife resources. This product should put science into action, applying scientific research directly to decision making about natural resources. It may be related to the graduate student�s own research, and if so, may present a unique opportunity to enhance and share research with a broader community of decision makers. This unique educational opportunity will also offer a chance to interact with professionals within the USGS community and others outside of academia. |
