Fellowships

Center for Aquatic Conservation Fellowships

The Center for Aquatic Conservation (CAC) promotes the application of scientific knowledge to conserve earth’s freshwater sources.  Previously its own entity, CAC is now under the umbrella of the Environmental Change Initiative and continues to offer graduate student fellowships for the academic year. 

The primary purpose of these fellowships is to foster research that connects scientific, technical, or policy analysis with natural resource management or policy. CAC Fellowships have already been awarded for the 2012-2013 academic year. Please check back for details on next year's call for proposals.

For more information on applying for a CAC fellowship, please contact Joanna McNulty, ND-ECI Business and Program Manager, at (574) 208-6080 or jmcnulty.9 (at) nd (dot) edu
