George Melendez Wright Climate Change Fellowship Program

On behalf of the National Park Service, the University of Washington College of the Environment is managing the George Melendez Wright Climate Change Fellowship Program. The goals of this student fellowship program are to support new and innovative research relevant to managing climate change impacts in US National Parks, including transboundary issues and comparisons to Mexican or Canadian protected areas.

Students enrolled in master’s and Ph.D. programs in the US, Canada, and Mexico may apply. Both US citizens and non-citizens are eligible. Proposed research should be conducted on or around National Park lands and must be relevant to NPS resource management needs.
