CREATE Great Lakes research program: MSc and PhD training opportunities available
The Collaborative Research and Training Experience (CREATE) program on multiple stressors and cumulative effects in the Great Lakes ecosystems is designed to train the next generation of scientists and policy-makers to understand and address the complex issues currently impacting the Great Lakes ecosystems. The CREATE program will train students using a trans-boundary, multidisciplinary approach that integrates scientific, social, and economic dimensions, promoting direct interactions between researchers, policy makers, and the public sector.
Students admitted to the CREATE Great Lakes program will:
* Address the program's research goals and objectives by incorporating some element of multiple stressors and/or cumulative impacts in the Great Lakes and its watersheds in their thesis research
* Complete a one-week fundamentals course and a one-week field course
* Participate in at least one placement/internship
* Attend and/or participate in periodic virtual seminars (Webinars)
* Prepare a 2-4 page "fact sheet" on their thesis topic for public consumption that will be uploaded onto the CREATE program website
Applications for the 2014 study year are now being accepted. Prospective students must plan to be based at a Canadian institution, working under the supervision of a member of the CREATE program training team. Students can apply for start dates in January, May, or September.
