The Department of Geography is excited to announce the 2023-2024 Gerald W. Halmo Geography Scholars Program<https://geography.washington.edu/gerald-w-halmo-geography-scholars-program> to support undergraduate geography students' research, volunteering, or other projects that benefit a community and further their development as a geographer in practice! The recipient(s) of this $2,000 award will work with a group or individual(s) who work on projects that produce such a benefit. This work can be an internship but may also be any other working association with community groups or individual(s).

  *   For more information as well as resources & support to help you find opportunities for spring or summer quarter, join us on Zoom for the Halmo Scholarship Info Session<https://geography.washington.edu/calendar?trumbaEmbed=view%3Devent%26eventid%3D170103821%26view%3Devent%26eventid%3D170103821> on Thursday, November 9, at 3:30 PM Pacific Time!
  *   We encourage applications from majors who are in the process of initiating new community research, volunteer, and other relationships. We also encourage those majors who are building on their existing community relationships, such as those developed through service-learning courses or project partnerships, to apply.
  *   Further, we embrace applications from majors who are members of underrepresented groups, first generation, of any citizenship status, and those experiencing financial barriers that would otherwise prevent them from being able to participate in an internship, community-based research or other similar opportunities.

Deadline for applications is Wednesday, February 28, 2024, at 5:00 PM Pacific Time. (Award recipients will be notified by mid-March 2024.) Visit the Gerald W. Halmo Geography Scholars Program<https://geography.washington.edu/gerald-w-halmo-geography-scholars-program> webpage for all program details and a link to apply for this funding!
