Budweiser Conservation Scholarship Program Seeks Applications
Deadline: January 14, 2005

Anheuser-Busch and the National Fish and WildlifeFoundation (<a href="http://nfwf.org/">http://nfwf.org/</a>) are seeking applications for the 2005 Budweiser Conservation Scholarship Program.

This highly competitive scholarship program supports and promotes innovative research or study that seeks to respond to today’s most pressing conservation issues. The program provides scholarships to eligible graduate and undergraduate students who are poised to make a significant contribution to the field of conservation.

Through the 2005 program, a minimum of ten scholarships of up to $10,000 each will be awarded to cover students’ expenses for tuition, fees, books, room and board, and other direct expenses related to their studies. Awards will be made based on merit and will take into consideration a student’s academic achievements and ability and commitment to develop innovative solutions that are designed to address real and pressing issues affecting fish, wildlife, and plant conservation efforts.

To be eligible for consideration, a student must be a U.S. citizen, at least twenty-one years of age, and enrolled in an accredited institution of higher education pursuing a graduate or undergraduate degree (sophomores and juniors in the current academic year only) in environmental science, natural resource management, biology, public policy, geography, political science, or related disciplines. Recipients are eligible for one year of scholarship support.

See the NFWF Web site for complete program and application information.
