CASFM has $2000 available to award to students for the 2007-08 academic year. Application packages must be received by February 22, 2008. Scholarship Purpose: The purpose of this scholarship is to promote interest among students and the engineering community in the Colorado Association of Stormwater and Floodplain Managers (CASFM) and to promote the goals of CASFM. Applicants must be U.S. citizens enrolled in a graduate program closely related to CASFM’s goals at a College or University in the State of Colorado and be registered to take at least 3 credit-hours of coursework per semester. Eligible programs of study include, but are not limited to, hydrology, hydraulics, watershed management, floodplain management, stormwater management, stormwater quality, emergency response, meteorology and climatology. The scholarship recipient will also have the option to make a 20-minute presentation on their research project at the 2008 annual CASFM conference held in September. Registration and lodging at the conference is included if the recipient commits to make a presentation by the call for papers deadline (typically late March). Selection Process: Three applicants will be short-listed based on this application and a short essay (up to 500 words) describing their personal and career goals and how they relate to the goals of CASFM. Short-listed applicants will be notified on or about March 7th. A panel will hold a short (20-30 minute) interview with short-listed applicants on the week of March 14th at a location to be determined (either Fort Collins or Denver). The successful candidate will be notified on or about March 18th. The funds will be awarded as either a full-year $2000 scholarship to a single student or separately as a $1000 fall scholarship and $1000 spring scholarship to two students at the sole discretion of the CASFM Scholarship committee. Funds will be disbursed by deposit directly into the student’s school account.
