Given todays earlier ESmail
message contained information about different types of
environmental graduate programs, I don't want to forget to mention
UCSB's very own in-house Environmental Graduate School and the
different degree programs they have to offer. Below is the latest
announcement from Bren School of Environemntal Science and
Management containing info on "How to pay for graduate school"
that might be helpful.
They also want me to remind you
about the special $10,000 (x10 students) Fellowship Offer and waived
the $135 application fee for UCSB alumni looking to participate in
the one-year Masters of Environmental Data Science (MEDS)
program. Learn more about
MEDS
here and if you have questions about the UCSB alumni only
fellowships email MEDS director Jamie Montgomery
<jmont...@bren.ucsb.edu>.
