Description

The Oregon Chapter of the American Fisheries Society is proud to announce a competition for four student scholarships: one each for associate, undergraduate, Master's, and Doctoral student categories. The goal of these scholarships is to further the objectives of AFS by rewarding and promoting the education and development of future fisheries professionals. Applicants must be enrolled in or have been accepted for admission into a degree program. Their major field of study must be relevant to fisheries science. Applicants must be a current member of OR AFS, but may join AFS and the Oregon Chapter at the time of the scholarship application. They must not have been awarded the same Oregon Chapter AFS Scholarship in the previous year. Applicants must submit one letter of recommendation from a mentor, or another professional, who must be an AFS member. The letters should address the potential of the applicant to be a productive member of AFS and to contribute to fisheries science.
