Applications still being accepted for the Connecticut College/Williams-Mystic Fellowship

There’s still time for any interdisciplinary adventurers to apply to The Williams-Mystic and Connecticut College Study Away and Research Fellowship! Any interested student should apply to the Connecticut College Office of Study Away by February 13, 2015.

The Maritime Studies Program of Williams College and Mystic Seaport is partnering with Connecticut College through the Goodwin-Niering Center, the Study Away office, and CELS to provide a unique study away and research opportunity for undergraduates of any major. One or two Connecticut College students will be selected based on their application and their advisor’s recommendations to join Williams-Mystic’s interdisciplinary ocean studies semester. This scholarly and outdoor adventure includes living within the museum at Mystic Seaport and three substantial research trips: to sea on a tall ship, to the Pacific Northwest or California coast, and to the delta of the Mississippi River. In addition, fellowship students will conduct paid research work toward their area of interest, both during the semester and for a ten-week CELS summer internship.
