Hello!

The 2020 Carson Scholar Application is now LIVE!

The Carson Scholars Program is dedicated to training the next generation of environmental researchers in the art of public communication. Throughout the scholarship year, Carson Scholars work closely withfaculty mentors<https://carson.arizona.edu/mentors> who provide hands-on training and other resources to develop skills and strategies to effectively convey the value of their research and enhance their skills in communicating science to a variety of audiences. Scholars will typically give a public talk, present a pitch, write an essay or op-ed and likely complete one other project by the end of the year. In addition to this training, scholars will also receive a $5,000 scholarship for their participation and completion of the program.

The program's namesake, Rachel Carson<http://www.rachelcarson.org/Bio.aspx> (1907 – 1964), was a biologist, author, and conservationist who is credited with shining a light on the fragility and interconnectedness of our environment and is still a voice is the global environmental movement to this day.

The program is open to UA students in PhD, JD or terminal master’s creative programs in areas concerning the environment and/or its intersection with social justice.

Please see the attached flyer for additional information.
