Fall 2013 EPA Greater Research Opportunities (GRO)
Fellowships For Undergraduate Environmental Study
Open Date: 10/01/2012
- Close Date: 12/05/2012
Summary: The U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), National Center for Environmental
Research (NCER), invites applications for the Greater Research Opportunities
(GRO) Fellowships for undergraduate environmentally-related study for
bachelor’s level students. Subject to availability of funding, the quality of
applications received and other applicable considerations, the Agency plans to
award approximately 40 new fellowships in the summer of 2013.
The fellowship provides up to $20,700 per year of academic
support and $8,600 for internship support for a combined total of up to $50,000
over the life of the fellowship. The GRO
program enhances and supports quality environmental education for
undergraduates, and thereby encourages them to continue their education beyond
the baccalaureate level, and pursue careers in environmentally-related fields,
such as biology, health, the social sciences, and engineering. The actual
amount awarded per year will vary depending on the amount of tuition and fees
and the number of months the stipend is required.
This fellowship is intended to help defray costs
associated with environmentally-oriented study leading to a bachelor’s degree.
