SCAR Fellowship Opportunities for 2019 – Application Deadline 17 July 2019
SCAR will offer 5 to 6 fellowships of up to USD $15,000 each for 2019, with additional support for the scheme having been provided by India, Korea and France. A new SCAR-WMO Fellowship is also available in 2019 as detailed below. The Fellowships enable early-career researchers to join a project team from another country, opening up new opportunities and often creating partnerships that last for many years and over many Antarctic field seasons.
The deadline for fellowship applications is 17 July 2019.
Additional opportunities in 2019 through the SCAR Fellowship scheme

- India is providing support to fund one full SCAR Fellowship, with France providing a contribution to the Fellowship funds.
- The Republic of Korea will also contribute to one Fellowship to be allocated to an applicant from a country which has been under-represented within the SCAR Fellowship scheme to date.
- For the new SCAR-WMO Fellowship, the WMO and SCAR will jointly fund one Fellowship for applicants from a WMO country who meet the Fellowship eligibility criteria of the WMO.
