[inactive] Hudson River Foundation Graduate Fellowships: Mark B. Bain Graduate Fellowship Program

The Foundation may award up to six full-time research fellowships per year to advanced graduate students conducting research on the Hudson River system. A fellowship awarded to a doctoral studentwill include a stipend consistent with the policy of the student’s graduate institution, in an amount of up to $19,000 for one year, plus an incidentals research budget of up to $1,000.

Projects must be relevant to the Hudson River and Watershed and focused on topics related to the physical, chemical, and biological aspects of the River, or address social, economic, or public policy issues, including issues related to environmental justice.

Applications will be evaluated on the potential of the project to advance understanding of the issues affecting the River, the description, merits, and feasibility of the proposed research, the impact on the student and the student’s career, and the potential of the project to broaden participation from the Hudson River’s diverse student communities, particularly those historically underrepresented in the environmental sciences.
