I am forwarding this message from the University of Tasmania in case
there are members of this discussion list from Canada, Chile, the Czech
Republic, Denmark, Sweden, the UK or the US who would like to consider
applying for a scholarship to come to Tasmania to carry out research for
a higher degree. My interest is in attracting students to continue our
collaborative work with the University on coarse woody debris, old trees
and saproxylic organisms (many such projects appear on the Warra LTER
site web page, at www.warra.com). So if this appeals, please contact me
as well as checking out the scholarships web page mentioned in the
message below. I am not employed by the University but collaborate on
research related to forest management and conservation issues.

Note that the University's invitation is open to anyone with the right
credentials, so if your interests go beyond what I have written here
then by all means check out the web page but DON'T contact me about it!

Regards

Simon Grove

Know students in any of the following countries who would like
to do a research program at UTas - Canada, Chile, the Czech Republic,
Denmark, Sweden, United Kingdom or the USA?

Applications are now open for the Thomas Crawford Memorial
Scholarship, offered as a result of a bequest to the University of
Tasmania by the late Mr Crawford.
The Crawford Scholarship provides an
APA stipend for three years;
international course fees; and
a relocation allowance.

The research scholarship provides opportunities only for
students from the countries listed above to study at the University.
Thomas Crawford was a US citizen who studied at the University
in the 1960s. He developed a deep affection for Tasmania and made
many
friends here. He was so impressed with the knowledge he gained from
the
University, he established a scholarship to fund students with strong
academic credentials from countries he nominated so that they too
could
benefit from studying here.
The closing date for applications is 30 June each year.
Application details are on the Tasmania Scholarships page on
the
web at www.scholarships.utas.edu.au There is a link on the
scholarships

Please help to advertise the scholarship for the University.
If
you know of potential students or have academic colleagues in any of
