>Dear Colleague,
>
>We're writing to tell you about two student training programs and to ask 
>your assistance in assessing the need for – and interest in – technical 
>short courses designed for individuals working at the interface of the 
>Atmospheric and Biospheric sciences.
>
>1.  DOCTORAL STUDENT TRAINING PROGRAM - FUNDING FOR UP TO 2 YEARS!!
>
>The Biosphere-Atmosphere Research and Training (BART) Program is an 
>NSF-IGERT training program for doctoral students who are conducting 
>research at the interface of these disciplines.  Students enrolled in any 
>doctoral program in the United States (U. S. citizens or permanent 
>residents) can win a fellowship for up to two years.   Fellowships include 
>an annual stipend ($30,000), up to $2,000 for equipment or supplies, and 
>support for travel to the University of Michigan Biological Station (UMBS) 
>and to a professional conference.  BART fellows participate in an 8-week 
>residential training program at the UMBS in Pellston, MI for 2 summers and 
>continue in their doctoral program during the academic year.  Summer 
>training includes a course in the essentials of Biosphere-Atmosphere 
>interactions, workshops, and research conducted with the guidance of 
>faculty mentors with expertise in biospheric and atmospheric sciences.
>
>Please visit the BART web page at 
><http://www.bart-wmich.org/>www.bart-wmich.org to learn more about the 
>program and to obtain application information.  Applications are due in 
>February 2006.  Please feel free to contact the BART Coordinator, Nancy
