The Great Lakes Fishery Commission Travel Award seeks to promote academic excellence by providing funds to student scientists to present graduate research results at scientific conferences. Two travel awards will be provided to M.Sc. or Ph.D. students whose research is likely to make a significant contribution to understanding Great Lakes aquatic ecology and fishery science. Full-time M.Sc. or Ph.D. students whose research topic is relevant to the Great Lakes and who have not previously received this award are eligible. Applicants may seek funds (up to $1,500 per award) to attend and make an oral presentation of research at any conference. Recipients will be announced in mid-May.
