WLW-ECOS Student Success Scholarship
WLW-ECOS Semester by the Sea Scholarship
The WLW-ECOS Student Success Scholarship was established to provide scholarships to undergraduate students in their junior and senior year with financial need. Students must also show a demonstrated interest in environmental science, through relevant experience, coursework, or exposure to the environmental field.
Award Amount: $7,500 per semester (fall and spring terms)
Students must re-apply each fall and spring.
Few activities are as intellectually rewarding as research. In addition to the acquisition of invaluable research skills, students will:
Undergraduate research can take place in every discipline. It is especially common in the life sciences and physical sciences, where an estimated 40 percent of students nationwide engage in research under faculty mentorship; it is also found in the humanities, social sciences, and creative and performing arts.
