Leon – IUGFS Excellence in Field Geology Scholarship

Supports scholarships for students who have been accepted and enrolled in the summer field courses at the IU Judson Mead Geologic Field Station. Recipients are not required to be full-time IU students. Preference is given to students who best exhibit the potential to perform exceptionally well in a rigorous field geology course.

This award recognizes the long-standing emphasis on critical geologic thinking, problem-solving, synthesis, and decision-making that is at the core of the globally recognized IUGFS program. This scholarship was established in 2016 to assist in the development of future geoscientists through immersive geologic field experiences at the Field Station.
