East Asia Geoscience and Environmental Research (EAGER) Project

The 41st Steering Committee had endorsed the implementation of EAGER-a trust fund set up in the Geological Society of America with personal contribution of Dr Rick Terman, CCOP Honorary Advisor, to be used for funding research in geoscience in the region. Under the programme, Dr Maurice J. “Ric” Terman generously proposed a contribution of USD 100,000 as principal for the EAGER fund. Proceeds of the principal sum estimated at 5% per annum, (USD 5 000 per year) will be made available as grant(s) for final year PhD student or for post-Doctoral research in Geoscience and Environment in East Asia.

 

The grant will be available for candidates from the Member Country hosting the Annual Session with the proceeds of the principal sum only will be used to finance the grant.

 

CCOP will assist in the implementation of the Grant and the procedure is outlined in the project proposal attached, and summarized briefly as follows:

 

  • The grant will be made available to candidates of Member Country hosting the CCOP Annual Session.
  • Hosting Member Country will select candidates (up to 10) who must be GSA members (annual subscription USD 30/-).
  • Cooperating Country and Organization representatives and Advisors will review the short-listed candidates
  • Chairman Advisory Group will synthesize the reviews of representatives and advisors, with rankings and recommends the final grant(s) to GSA and CCOP.
  • Successful candidate will be formally recognized during the CCOP Annual Session.
