Description

 

The Foundation for Food and Agriculture Research (FFAR) Fellows program, Category – Professional Development, is accepting applicationsfor students who already have a research project and support funding.  If selected, they will engage in professional development activities (valued at $10,000 per year) and will be matched with an industry sponsor.  Applicants should have already been accepted by their preferred university, have a research area or specific project to be conducted under the direction of their university advisor, and be funded either by their university or a grant.  An industry sponsor will fund half of the professional development expenses and the FFAR Fellows program matches this amount. Funding is used to support student travel to the annual site visit and the cost of professional development programming.
