Are you in the process of selecting undergraduate students to work in your lab for the 2015-2016 academic year?

If your research is oceans-related, your student(s) may be eligible to receive funding from the Research & Development Corporation’s (RDC’s) Ocean Industries Student Research Awards (OISRA).

Students can receive up to $7,500 with additional supervisory funding of $1,500 to support the student’s research costs.

Most undergraduate OISRA awardees have gone on to pursue graduate research at Memorial University.  Some students have even received a second OISRA award at the graduate level.
