Northern California Botanists provides competitive botany and plant
ecology research scholarships to undergraduate and graduate students
attending a college and university. Research scholarships will be funded
by NCB with the goals of encouraging undergraduate students to pursue
academic endeavors toward a career in botany, promoting undergraduate
and graduate botany and plant ecology research, and implementing
objectives of the NCB mission.
The geographic range for defining the Northern California Botanists
(NCB) area of interest for student research scholarships includes the
area extending northward--from the southern boundary of San Luis Obispo
County and western slope of the Tehachapi Mountains, following the
eastern slope of the Sierra Nevada, to the southern boundary of Mono
County. Students from any accredited college or university doing
research within the NCB geographic range may apply for NCB student
research scholarships.
Research scholarships consist of $1,000 awards, designed to support
basic undergraduate and graduate research. Students may reapply and
receive a scholarship award up to a maximum of two years for
undergraduates and graduates pursuing a Masters degree and up to a
maximum of four years for graduate students pursuing a Doctorate degree.

"Northern California Botanists is an organization with the purpose of
increasing knowledge and communication among agency, consulting,
academic, and other botanists about botanical issues concerning science,
conservation, education, and professional development. Our primary
objectives are to establish a communication forum via occasional
meetings, a scholarship fund for students working on botanical problems
in northern California, a job forum, and symposia that focus on the
botany of northern California."
