The Bisk Foundation Teacher Education Scholarship program will award four (4) scholarships each session for one year (four sessions in the 12-month year) commencing with Special Fall 2010 Part B, then again in Special Spring 2011 Part B, Special Summer 2011 Part A, and Special Summer 2011 Part B. Each scholarship is valued at $330.00 per course which represents 25% off the current tuition price and will be applied to every course through to graduation. The amount is based on the 2010-11 tuition rate of $1,320 for a 3-credit graduate level course. The minimum amount awarded will be $3,960 for the Master of Science in Curriculum and Instruction and $4,290 for Master of Science in Educational Administration. The dollar value will adjust with any tuition changes, with the percent value remaining at 25%. The scholarship is in effect as long as the recipient continues to be an active degree seeking student.

Postdoctoral Research Associate in Biophysics on 3D STEM, USA

/ January 24, 2011 Leave a Comment

The  Microscopy Group in the Materials Science and Technology Division at Oak Ridge  National Laboratory (ORNL) has a postdoctoral position available. We are  developing 3D scanning transmission electron microscopy, a novel method for  obtaining three-dimensional structural information about biological samples.  The technology is based on the principles of confocal microscopy but provides  higher resolution with the use of an aberration corrected scanning transmission  electron microscope (STEM). 3D STEM is a unique alternative for electron  tomography with potentially improved capabilities. The project is a collaboration  between ORNL and Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC). The position is  on 3D STEM imaging, deconvolution, and data analysis.

Scholarship Application Deadline: Applications may be submitted throughout the year, and appointments may begin at any time.

The Ramsar Convention’s International Grants Fund 2011: Conservation of Wetland Resources

/ January 24, 2011 Leave a Comment

The Ramsar Small Grants Fund (SGF) was established in 1990 as a mechanism to assist developing countries and those with economies in transition in implementing the Convention and to support the conservation and wise use of wetland resources, with a strong human and social dimension. From 1991 to 2009 the Fund has provided a total of 7.7 million Swiss Francs to 234 projects from 108 countries, providing up to 40,000 Swiss Francs (about US$40,000) per project.

Each year a rigorous evaluation procedure is carried out by the Ramsar Secretariat to assess the project proposals according to the strength of the project design, their relevance to the Convention’s objectives, and the capacity of the proponents to complete the project successfully.

Scholarship Application Deadline:30 April 2011
