Geoscience BC will award up to ten scholarships of $5,000 CAD each to qualified students who have registered and started in a Masters (MSc) or Doctorate (PhD) program in earth science or geoscience and are working on a British Columbia-based mineral, oil and gas, coal or geothermal exploration and/or development thesis topic.
