The Royal
Meteorological Society is pleased to call for applications for the
Rupert Ford Travel Awards for Young Scientists for 2004/5. The Society
has been asked to administer the Rupert Ford Fund which has been set
up by his family, friends and colleagues to honour the name of the
late Dr Rupert Ford, whose brilliant scientific career was cruelly cut
short by illness. The Fund will be used to sponsor travel by
outstanding young scientists from any part of the world to enable them
to undertake research work or study in meteorology or associated
physical oceanography (air-sea interaction) at a centre of excellence
outside their own countries.
Applications are now invited for the Rupert Ford Awards for 2004/5
from scientists who will be 30 years of age or less on 31 December
2005. Applications must be made
on forms available from the Royal Meteorological Society and must
reach the Society’s offices by 1700 GMT on Friday 31st December 2004.
Applicants do NOT need to be members of the Royal Meteorological
Society.
Full details of eligibility for the Award are available from the
Society and can be found on
www.rmets.org . All
applications must include a description of the work to be undertaken
and an assessment of its relevance and importance, a clear statement
at an appropriate level from the Institution where the work is to be
done indicating acceptance of the applicant for a short term research
or study placement, and a statement of support from a senior academic
colleague (Head of Department or Professor) in the applicant’s
research field.
The awards are competitive and dependent upon the quality of the
applications. Applications will be assessed and award decisions made
by a panel of distinguished scientists set up for the purpose. Up to
three awards may be made in 2004/5 but there is no mandate to offer
any awards in any given year. The value of each award for 2004/5 will
be of the order of £3,000 ($4,500 or Eu4,700).
Applications may be made at any time in the next twelve months, but
funds are limited and early application is advisable. In any case,
to allow time for applications to be processed, they must be made at
least three months before the intended starting date of the travel to
be undertake |
