Student Funding

SEG is committed to supporting the academic and professional development of undergraduate and graduate students around the globe by promoting and encouraging engagement in a variety of events. Workshops, conferences, short courses, and field trips all facilitate learning, networking, and sharing experiences between students and other members within SEG.

Funding is available to individual students through research grants, fellowships, field trip programs and mapping courses.

• Student Research Grants (SRG) are for one year of funding and typically range from US$1,000 to US$5,000.
• Graduate Student Fellowships (GSF) are for one year of funding and range from US$2,500 to US$10,000. Students must apply in their first year of graduate study.
• The Ronald E. Seavoy Student Field Trip Program (SFT) and Michael J. Fitzgerald Student Mapping Course (MJF) offers a chance to visit major mining districts worldwide. Costs to students are subsidized substantially.

The Society for Economic Geologists (SEG) is not permitted to award grants or scholarships to students or institutions located in U.S. Sanctioned countries. Students from U.S. Sanctioned countries are therefore ineligible to receive grants and scholarships from SEG. ofac.treasury.gov
