GSA GRADUATE RESEARCH GRANT PROGRAM (2017-2019)

该奖项部分支持由美国地质学会(GSA)管理的地球科学研究生研究资助计划。该计划的主要作用是为研究生完成硕士和博士论文研究提供部分支持。拨款的目的是为他们的研究项目提供部分支持，而不是维持全部费用。由于申请的资助额通常超过可用资助额，因此申请将以竞争性的方式进行评估。根据问题的科学价值、调查人员的能力和预算的合理性对申请进行评估。助学金只授予个人；机构、学会和大学没有资格。GSA大力鼓励妇女、地球科学界任职人数不足的群体成员和残疾人充分参与这一赠款方案。该方案的管理和实施利用在线资源；因此，进度报告的申请、审查和提交都是以电子方式完成的。这些申请由一个由31名成员组成的委员会审查，该委员会涵盖申请所代表的各种学科专业知识。GSA将与支持代表学生的组织合作，向这些组织的成员推广这一资助机会。

This award partially supports the Geosciences Graduate Research Grants program managed by the Geological Society of America (GSA). The primary role of this program is to provide partial support for graduate students to complete Master's and Doctoral thesis research. Grants are intended to provide partial support of their research project, not to sustain the entire cost. Since the amount of money requested for grants usually exceeds the amount available, applications are evaluated on a competitive basis. Applications are evaluated on the basis of the scientific merits of the problems, the capability of the investigator, and reasonableness of the budget. Grants are awarded only to individuals; institutions, societies, and universities are not eligible. GSA strongly encourages women, members of under-represented groups in Geosciences, and persons with disabilities to participate fully in this grants program.The management and implementation of the program takes advantage of online resources; thus, the application, review, and submission of progress reports are done electronically. The applications are reviewed by a committee of 31 members that covers the range of disciplinary expertise represented in the applications. GSA will be partnering with organizations that support under represented students to promote this funding opportunity to members of these organizations.
