National Park Service George Melendez Wright Climate Change Fellowship Program

National Park Service George Melendez Wright Climate Change Fellowship Program

On behalf of the National Park Service, the University of Washington College of the Environment will be accepting applications for the 2011 George Melendez Wright Climate Change Fellowship Program. (The online application system is expected to be available after December 27, 2010.)

The goals of this student fellowship program are to support new and innovative research on climate change impacts to protected areas and to increase the use of scientific knowledge to further resource management in parks. Awards will be made in the range of $5,000 to $20,000 per fellowship for research to be undertaken in calendar years 2011-12. Projects may consist of exploratory research that could lead to a larger project funded by other sources but must result in tangible outcomes that are aimed at informing resource decisions. Applications are encouraged for research in any area relevant to the natural and cultural resources of units of the National Park System. Examples include projects addressing vulnerability and risk assessment; adaptation strategies; public perceptions and values; and impacts to natural resources, cultural landscapes, and ethnographic resources.

Eligibility: An individual graduate student or a team of graduate students who are currently enrolled, or will be enrolled in a U.S. accredited college or university may apply. Both U.S. citizens and non-citizens are eligible. NPS employees are not eligible to apply.

Requirements: Proposed research should be conducted on or around National Park lands and must be relevant to NPS resource management needs. Upon completion of the fellowship, students are required to provide a summary report of their results and one or more educational products or publications to help facilitate information transfer beyond the scientific audience. Deliverables may include a presentation to the site manager, public seminar, or non-technical article. Housing may be available within the park where research will be conducted. Requests for housing will be made as part of the application process and must be arranged through the park after the fellowship has been awarded and well in advance of the project start date.

The deadline for submission is February 4, 2011. All applicants will be notified of selection decisions by April 22, 2011. Proposals will be selected based on the following criteria: relevance and technical soundness of the proposed research; feasibility of the proposed study; qualifications of the student; and the clarity and completeness of the proposal. Research projects are to begin in the summer of 2011 and may be completed in one or two field seasons (summers of 2011 and 2012). Awardees will submit either a progress report or a final report by September 2011. Final reports for projects conducted over two field seasons will be due by September 30, 2012.

Digital Research Summer Institute

Digital Research Summer Institute
Designing, Composing, and Evaluating Digital Scholarship
Simpson Center for the Humanities, University of Washington
Fridays, 9am-4 pm, June 24 to July 22, 2011
Application Deadline: Wednesday, March 30, 2011

Call for Participants

Intended for UW faculty, staff, and graduate students, the 2011 Digital Research Summer Institute is an intensive effort to foster sustainable digital scholarship and interoperable communities of digital practice at the University of Washington. The Institute focuses on the production of networked, multimodal scholarship that re-imagines the very forms and functions of research, peer review, and scholarly communication in the humanities. Framed this way, digital scholarship may entail anything from a web-based exhibit or visualization to a digital dissertation, hybrid monograph, or electronic journal article.

Through workshops, critiques, presentations, demos, and seminar meetings, participants will have an opportunity to gain competencies in:

* Reviewing digital scholarship, platforms, and tools,
* Authoring accessible online content,
* Determining deposit plans for storing digital projects,
* Designing and testing scholarship with affordances distinct from print,
* Articulating interfaces with research methodologies, and
* Blending technical practices with critical theory.

The Institute will run June 24-July 22, with five weekly meetings (Fridays, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.), composed of workshops and seminar-style discussions. On their own schedules, participants will communicate across projects and work together in between meetings. Participants are asked to commit to the Institute as a whole, attending all five sessions.

Applicants should currently be involved in the development of a digital project: those projects at nascent or intermediate stages will benefit most. Previous experience in designing or composing digital scholarship will not be assumed. Possible lines of inquiry include, but are certainly not limited to:


* Using locative media approaches to political economy, empire, globalization, or geopolitics,

* Composing video, audio, and other dynamic media to critique or expand print, Visualizing patterns in humanities datasets,

* Mapping systemic issues related to race, gender, sexuality, or class,

* Developing community-based or participatory digital collections,

* Constructing non-sequential histories of new media and material culture, and

* Integrating technologies into humanities pedagogy or the scholarship of teaching.

Collaborative projects involving interdisciplinary teams (not to exceed five applicants per team) are especially welcome. Projects augmenting existing humanities platforms and tools (e.g., by using them in novel ways or contributing plugins) are also welcome.

Applications (from individuals or teams) should consist of a:

* Project description (not to exceed 500 words), including methodology and interventions in relevant field(s),
* Statement (not to exceed 250 words) on why the project is-or needs to be-digital, including platforms or tools involved,
* CV (2-5 pages) for each applicant, and
* OPTIONAL: Any URLs, media, or data related to the project.

Submit all materials no later than Wednesday, March 30, 2011, as follows:


1) BUNDLE all application materials and SAVE them as a single PDF file.
2) NAME that document as "[Your last name]_application.pdf" or "[Your project name]_application.pdf".
3) UPLOAD your PDF file to the Catalyst Collect It dropbox at: https://catalyst.uw.edu/collectit/dropbox/schadmin/13106
4) COMPLETE the online application form at: https://catalyst.uw.edu/webq/survey/schadmin/119433


If the size of your media or data exceeds twenty-five megabytes (MB), then by the March 30 deadline please either: (1) submit them on a labeled CD or DVD to the Simpson Center (206 Communications) or (2) upload them to a file hosting service (or web server) and include the URL in your application.

Award: All participants will be named Institute fellows: graduate student participants will receive $500 stipends for their participation. Notifications will be sent by Friday, April 22.

Institute Director: Jentery Sayers (PhD Candidate, English), whose experiences in digital scholarship include publishing in the electronic journal Kairos (for which is he also a member of the editorial board), contributing essays to two forthcoming collections from Computers and Composition Digital Press (Utah State University Press), serving on the steering committee for HASTAC, and developing a hybrid dissertation (i.e., part print, part digital) with support from the National Endowment for the Humanities and the electronic journal Vectors.

"Grant Us Space" Research Fellowship Opportunity

The National Space Grant College and Fellowship Program in partnership with NASA’s Reduced Gravity Education Flight Program announces the opportunity for students attending colleges and universities affiliated with Space Grant consortia to conduct research in a unique reduced gravity environment.

The “Grant Us Space” opportunity will enable selected student teams the opportunity to propose, design and fabricate a reduced gravity experiment and subsequently test and evaluate their experiment aboard a microgravity aircraft, which flies about 30 roller-coaster-like climbs and dips to produce periods of micro and hyper gravity, ranging from 0 g’s to 2 g’s.

Students interested in testing an experiment in this unique environment need to submit their proposals by *_February 2, 2011_*.

Interested students should also submit a letter of intent by _January 12, 2011_. This step is optional, but serves as an introductory notice that a team plans to submit a proposal for the upcoming competition.


NASA will announce the selected teams _March 16, 2011_ to fly in _July
2011_. Once selected, teams may also invite a full-time, accredited
journalist to fly with them and document the team’s experiment and
experience. All applicants must be currently enrolled students, at
least 18-years-old and be U.S. citizens. Flyers that have participated
in the past NASA RG program will not be eligible to participate as a
flyer or alternate for this program.


A total of 14 flight teams will be selected. Selections will be made according to the following regional allocations:

_Number of teams per Space Grant Region_

· Western Region: 5

· Southeast Region: 3

· Great Mid-Western Region: 2

· Mid-Atlantic Region: 2

· Northeast Region: 2

This opportunity is a flight week exclusively for students attending colleges and universities of Space Grant consortia. This opportunity provides the usual flight week benefits of NASA’s Reduced Gravity Student Flight Opportunities Program (http://microgravityuniversity.jsc.nasa.gov/); however, only Space Grant-associated student teams may be selected. Student teams will still need to secure funding for their experiment, travel and per diem, and other expenses outlined in the attached FAQ, Question #8.

Consortia are strongly encouraged to seek participation by minority-serving institutions, community colleges, and institutions that have not previously flown. In order to expand the number of students participating in student-led flight activities, no student flyers that have participated in the past NASA Reduced Gravity program will be eligible to participate as a flyer or alternate for this program.

With this program, NASA continues its tradition of investing in the nation’s education programs. It is directly tied the Agency's major education goal of strengthening NASA and the nation's future workforce.
