The Association of Applied Geochemists encourages students to explore the intellectual challenges and professional opportunities of exploration and environmental geochemistry. To enhance the academic programs offered by universities and colleges, the Association promotes active graduate and undergraduate Student Chapters.
Acme Analytical Laboratories Ltd. and ioGlobal are taking the bold initiative of directly aiding students in the geosciences via the ioStipend. The ioStipend is a grant available to students conducting exploration-related geochemical studies at a recognized educational institution. The grant is in the form of analytical services using any package provided by Acme Analytical Laboratories Ltd. Students and/or their teachers/advisors can apply for the grant by submitting the application to ioGlobal who will vet the proposals.
The grant is intended to promote the collection of high quality, base-line data for comparison with more "esoteric data" (eg, isotopic data, partial digests, non-standard sample media) generated during the course of research, and to promote broad training in fundamental geochemical principals across the geosciences.
The ioStipend allows for amounts of approximately $5,000 (AUD, CAD or equivalent) for in-kind analytical work. Successful applicants will also be provided with 3 academic licences of ioGAS, the new exploratory data analysis software package available from ioGlobal.
