ECORD RESEARCH GRANTS
The European Consortium for Ocean Research Drilling (ECORD) is sponsoring merit-based awards for outstanding graduate students to conduct research related to the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program.
The research may be directed toward the objectives of upcoming or past DSDP/ODP/IODP expeditions (core material and/or data).
ECORD Research Grants cover travel and lab expenses or other approved costs related to the study. Grants will not typically exceed 2000 Euro and will be paid at the start of the project.
Applicants can be enrolled in either a PhD or post-doc program at any institution from ECORD countries only.
Applications should take the form of a mini-proposal detailing the aims of the study, the material/data to be worked on, the project partnership and the costs.
A final report, including balanced budget and some details on the data, must be completed within 15 months after the grant award.
