The Pathfinder Fellowship has been postponed due to travel limitations until Fall 2021.
Graduate training in water science often focuses on a single field site, analytical, or modeling approach. The Pathfinder Fellowship program provides travel funds to graduate students in hydrology and related sciences to make an extended trip to enhance their research by adding a field site to conduct comparative research, collaborating with a research group, or working with researchers on adding an interdisciplinary dimension to a project. Fellowships are awarded to cover travel costs of up to a maximum of $5,000.
The Pathfinder Fellowship now requires a brief Data Management Plan, which describes how the applicant plans to obtain, store, and disseminate data products resulting from the Pathfinder Fellowship.
View the CUAHSI Resources for Data Management webinar as it will help you with this requirement.
Questions regarding the Pathfinder Fellowship Program should be directed to jpollak@cuahsi.org.
