About this scholarship
Bat Conservation International bestows annual special recognition to Student Scholars with exemplary work and impacts through different distinctions. The Bat Conservation International Women in Science Award will be awarded to a student identifying as a woman who demonstrates a commitment to advancing women in science, which can be demonstrated through an initiative to support other women in science or their personal development. Eligibility is restricted to women from the Global South. This recognition comes with additional support for the woman's professional development or proposed initiative up to $500 USD. BCI requests proposals from exceptionally talented graduate student researchers interested in seeking financial support for their bat conservation research projects. Students must be a registered graduate student (Ph.D. or M.Sc.) and in good standing with a recognized academic institution. Previous BCI Student Scholarship recipients are not eligible to apply unless they are seeking funding for a different graduate degree. Graduate research must fit the priority categories as defined in this request for proposals (RFP). All proposals must be prepared by the applicant. While BCI will fund work that is part of a larger project, the applicant must write the proposal and conduct the research. One letter of recommendation is required, preferably from the student's supervisor. Projects must begin no later than six months following the date of award. Applicants may submit only one proposal per RFP. Applicants are encouraged to re-apply and improve their proposals based on the feedback from previous submissions. Please visit the award's website or contact the Bat Conservation International for more information.
