We encourage students to participate in this meeting by submitting an
abstract and attending presentations. In addition, the following benefits are
available to students.
Four half-hour lectures highlighting basic concepts and issues related to the broad themes of Solar Variability, Comparative Planetology, the Carbon Cycle and Climate Modeling. Speakers: Barbara Thompson (GSFC), James W. Head (Brown), Eric Sundquist (USGS), and Ed Sarachik (Washington). The AGU Committee on Education and Human Resources is sponsoring a
workshop on job-hunting skills and strategies specifically designed for
scientists. Topics will include identifying your skills and career goals,
career alternatives for scientists, structuring your job search, and
researching the job market. Participants also will receive reference
materials on job and fellowship opportunities and job-hunting skills. There
is no charge for the workshop, but you must register either in advance or at
the Fall Meeting Career Center in order to reserve materials. A breakfast will be held in honor of all graduate and undergraduate
students registered for the meeting. Students will have the opportunity to
hear an overview of AGU programs that serve its student members, meet with AGU
President Marcia McNutt, talk with representatives from each Section, and
network with other students attending the meeting. A continental breakfast will be provided. This event is sponsored by ExxonMobil. Current and past fellows from both of these programs will share their
experience and answer your questions. Mass Media Fellows B report on and write
about science news for a newspaper, magazine, or radio or TV station for a 10
week period during the summer. Congressional Science Fellows B deal with
science issues in the office of a Senator, Representative, or committee for a
full year. Kirsten Cutler, 2000-2001 AGU Congressional Science Fellow just
completed her year in the office of Senator Joseph Lieberman (D-CT); Karen
Wayland, 2001-2002 AGU Congressional Science Fellow has just started her
Fellowship. Space is limited. Lunch provided (first come, first serve).
Outstanding Student Paper Awards
All first-author students presenting a paper are eligible to
win. Winners will receive certificates and have their photographs and bios
published in Eos.
Travel Grants
Student Travel Grant Application deadline date has passed
for this meeting. Travel grants were available for a limited number of
students to attend the AGU 2001 Fall Meeting. The purpose of the Student
Travel Grant Program is to provide financial assistance to U.S. and
international students who have little or no support from research
contracts or grants, and plan to present an oral or poster presentation as
first author at the meeting. Applicants are required to join the AGU prior
to the meeting date if they are not already student members.
