Subject: Funding Opportunity for Students Doing Northern Research

Good morning,

We would like to advise you of a funding opportunity that some of your students may be eligible for. Please share widely with all who may benefit.

The Northern Scientific Training Program (NSTP) provides supplementary funding to offset the additional costs of northern research (i.e. transportation costs, living costs, and shipping costs).NSTP terms of reference and eligibility criteria are set by the NSTP Management Committee of Polar Knowledge Canada. Students can apply online, and applications are reviewed by our internal committee prior to being sent to NSTP for approval.

To be eligible, students must be:

· Doing field work in Northern Canada (see the map for NSTP’s definition of “Northern”)

· A Canadian citizen or permanent resident

· Enrolled in Graduate Studies; or

· Completing thesis based research in their final year at the undergraduate level

For further details and application instructions, please review this link.

Warm regards.

Roxanne
