Doris Duke Conservation Scholars Program at University of Michigan

The Doris Duke Conservation Scholars Program at the University of Michigan (DDCSP UM) is a two-year research and internship opportunity for bright, curious undergraduate students interested in conservation, nature, and the environment. The program is aimed at bringing more undergraduates currently underrepresented in the environmental field into the conservation arena.

The DDCSP UM offers unique learning and development opportunities for a diverse group of undergraduate students. It also provides generous funding and alumni support to better equip our scholars to build successful careers in the conservation and environmental fields. Our team led by Dr. Dorceta E. Taylor, James E. Crowfoot Collegiate Professor of Environmental Justice and Director of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) at the University of Michigan School for Environment and Sustainability (SEAS), is very excited to welcome our fourth cohort of scholars next summer 2019.

Please note that the deadline is on February 1st, 2019 with a priority date of January 11th. Visit their website for more information. For graduate students interested in an environmental summer program, please refer to this link. For more questions, contact them at (734) 936-0900.
