Why do you need this directory? If you're looking for graduate funding in the physical or earth sciences, this is the directory to use. Described here are the 900 biggest and best fellowships, grants, and awards set aside just for students interested in working on a master's or doctoral degree in:
Atmospheric sciences
Aviation
Chemistry
Computer science
Electronics
Energy and environmental sciences
Geology
Mathematics
Physics
Space sciences
Technology
or any other physical or earth science
Best of all, only "free" money is identified. This is your chance to find out about millions of dollars in aid, knowing that not one dollar of that will need to be repaid (provided, of course, that stated requirements are met)!
Is it easy to use the directory?
You'll find it easy to use Money for Graduate Students in the Physical & Earth Sciences. Each program is clearly described--with detailed information given on purpose, eligibility requirements, financial data, duration, special features, limitations, number awarded, and deadline date. Entries are grouped by purpose (study and training or research and creative activities) so you can zero in on just the type of aid you need. You'll even find the same convenience in the indexes, where title, organization, geographic coverage, subject, and deadline date are subdivided by funding focus.
Now, in one place you can find all the programs that are available to help you pay for a master's, professional, or doctoral degree in the physical or earth sciences! That why Choice "highly recommends" this directory and calls it "a welcome addition."
This directory has been prepared as part of RSP's four-volume Graduate Funding Set. Each volume in the set focuses on a different subject area. Money for Graduate Students in the Physical & Earth Sciences can be purchased separately ($40, plus shipping) or at a discounted price as part of this set.
