Thank you for your interest in becoming a Solutions Scholar!
The Solutions Scholars program sponsors existing UBC Masters and PhD students to apply their scholarly research skills to climate change mitigation, adaptation, and/or education. In 2024/25, successful Solutions Scholars will work on one of four collaborative projects which were recently selected through an open call to the UBC research community.
The objective of the program is to bring together researchers with diverse disciplinary expertise and lived experience to contribute to climate solutions-oriented research on campus. Each Scholar will have the opportunity to conduct research with an interdisciplinary group of faculty, senior researchers, and other Solutions Scholars, and to participate in related professional development activities.
Working over a ten-month period (September 2024 through June 2025), awarded Solutions Scholars will receive a $10,000 stipend as they work towards the objectives of one of the projects.
