2007 Luce Graduate Environmental Fellows Program
The Luce Graduate Environmental Fellows Program provides opportunities for Brown graduate students to work on environmental research projects in developing countries in coordination with Watson Scholar program alumni. Each fellowship provides $5,000 to cover travel and expenses for summer research. To prepare an application for this award, students need to develop their own research interests and then outline a project in collaboration with a current or past Watson Scholar and an on-campus advisor (click on links to the right to view present and past scholars).
