Jeanne E. Harris Chrysalis Scholarship, with an application deadline in May, offers numerous awards of $5000 each.

Description

The Jeanne E. Harris Chrysalis Scholarship provides degree-completion funding for women geoscience graduate students whose education has been significantly interrupted by life circumstances. Awarded funds are intended for a graduate student who is in the final stages of completing her thesis or dissertation but due to a significant interruption has not yet been able to complete her writing or defense. Applicants must be a graduate student who has had an interruption in academic progress of her current degree program due to life circumstances; approaching the completion phase of her geoscience degree; and someone who has contributed to, and will continue to contribute to, both the geosciences and the larger global community through her academic and personal strengths. Applicants must submit letters of reference from their thesis or dissertation advisor and another scientist of her choice. Both letters should specifically address the eligibility criteria and the topics in the letter of application. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
