The GSSI Student Research Grant from the American Geophysical Union supports student-led field research using ground-penetrating radar and electromagnetic geophysical methods.
Funder: American Geophysical Union
Due Dates: March 1, 2027 (Projected full application deadline)
Funding Amounts: Not specified; typically covers student field research expenses (equipment, travel, research costs).
Summary: Supports student-led field research in near-surface geophysics using ground-penetrating radar and electromagnetic methods.
Key Information: Research must involve GPR/electromagnetic methods; strict page limits and eligibility rules apply.
This grant, offered by the American Geophysical Union (AGU) and supported by Geophysical Survey Systems, Inc. (GSSI), is dedicated to advancing innovative, field-based research among student-scientists in the Near-Surface Geophysics Section. The program specifically encourages the use of ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and electromagnetic techniques in near-surface geophysical investigations. By providing resources for hands-on projects, the grant aims to foster the development of new geophysical tools and empower early-career researchers in the geosciences.
