CUR’s Geoscience Division (GeoCUR) gives annual awards to full-time undergraduate students currently enrolled in a two-year or four-year educational institution engaging in research emphasizing the geosciences, such as geology, oceanography, atmospheric sciences, etc. These students must have been enrolled for two semesters at their current institution by the date of the award announcement in April.
The faculty mentor must be a member of GeoCUR, (free with enhanced institutional CUR membership). One award per department per academic year will be given to an outstanding full-time undergraduate student. The department will determine the criteria for the award and will make the selection. The online form must be completed by the faculty mentor by March 3 so that certificates may be processed and forwarded to the departments by end of April.
The award consists of a certificate. Awardees will be publicized on the CUR Geoscience Division website. We encourage faculty to take advantage of this program to recognize your students, only available to faculty members of GeoCUR.
