AGeS-Grad is an NSF funded opportunity that provides up to $10,000 of support for graduate students to acquire geochronology data for their research projects and offers hands-on lab experience while being mentored by geochronologists. AGeS awardees will visit one of 60+ AGeS labs, participate in sample preparation and analysis, and learn fundamental aspects of the methods, techniques, and theory used in modern analytical facilities. We recommend that applicants contact a preferred AGeS lab about potential projects as early as possible because each lab may support a maximum of 4 projects during each application cycle.
