DAVID E. LUMLEY YOUNG SCIENTIST SCHOLARSHIP

DAVID E. LUMLEY YOUNG SCIENTIST SCHOLARSHIP

Scholarship for students

The David E. Lumley Young Scientist Scholarship for Energy and Environmental Science is for high school and undergraduate students with an interest in environmental science and energy. Its purpose is to inspire today’s young minds to work on problems of global importance in both the energy and environmental sectors of industry and academia.

Recipients receive $500 in financial support to participate in the AGU Annual Meeting. For AGU23, recipients can attend either in-person or virtually. The $500 award is meant to reimburse costs associated with participating in either an in-person meeting (hotel accommodations, travel expenses) or a virtual meeting (purchasing or renting technology, transportation or housing needed to access technology, dependent care costs, unpaid leave/lost wages, etc.). In addition, recipients will receive a $1,000 college scholarship provided by the David E. Lumley Scholarship Fund.

Applications for 2023 are now closed.
