Garden Club of America (GCA) Award in Coastal Wetlands Studies

The Garden Club of America Award in Coastal Wetlands Studies funds one graduate student annually to support field-based wetlands research. A student may propose a wetlands program of his/her choice at a leading educational institution within the United States that specializes in wetlands studies. For the purposes of this scholarship, coastal wetlands are defined as those tidal or nontidal wetlands found within coastal states, including the Great Lakes. This award is designed to support graduate students pursuing advanced degrees in coastal wetlands science, providing financial support for research activities and field studies in these critical ecosystems.
