Ocean, Earth, & Atmospheric Sciences (OEAS) Graduate Program Research & Travel Awards
Thanks to generous gifts and endowments, the CEOAS Ocean, Earth, & Atmospheric Sciences (OEAS) graduate program is able to offer limited funding to support graduate students’ research activities and research-related participation in professional conferences or workshops.
Applications are accepted on an ongoing/rolling basis. Each student is eligible to receive an award once per academic year (summer through spring terms). Awards generally range from $500-1000. Please apply 3-4 weeks in advance of the travel or research need to allow time for review, notification, and processing.
In most situations, award offers will be made through ScholarDollars and funds will be directly released to OSU student accounts for use as described in each application. Per OSU requirements, award funds must first be applied to a student’s OSU student account balance, and any remaining funds will be issued via check or direct deposit. Please check your OSU email inbox for details on any award you may be offered.
Applicants must meet two eligibility criteria:
- Currently enrolled as a graduate student in the OEAS program.
- Enrolled in the academic quarter in which the funds are utilized. You must be enrolled for funds to be released.
How to Apply for a Research or Travel Award
Students are required to submit an application to be considered for an award. Questions may be directed to Kira Hughes.
Post-Award Reporting
Award recipients must submit a summary of outcomes within 30 days of the completion of the conference or research activity for which the funds were used. CEOAS uses these summaries to thank our donors and demonstrate the return on their investment.
