The Central Iowa Chapter of the National Weather Association is pleased to announce that we are again offering two atmospheric science scholarships this year. The Tim Samaras Memorial Scholarship is for meteorology students who are pursuing a career in research meteorology. The Pam Daale Memorial Scholarship will be focused on students pursuing careers in broadcast or operational meteorology. The award for each scholarship will be $1500. More information can be found in the links below – or via the attached announcements in PDF format.
We would greatly appreciate your help posting these fliers in your department and forwarding this announcement to any qualified students that may be interested. In recent years, we noticed a slight decline in applications so please help us get the word out! Scholarship applications are due February 21, 2020. Both scholarships will be awarded at the 24th Annual Severe Storms and Doppler Radar Conference that will be held March 26-28, 2020 in Ankeny, IA. Any questions can be forwarded to me at michael.fowle@noaa.gov.
