The overall objective of the CREWES Project is to conduct advanced geophysical research for resource exploration and development. An important additional goal of the Project is to provide an enriched and exciting environment for student and staff research and education. CREWES sponsors provide funds that assist us in conducting our research and development. These funds provide support for students and also for staff members, who assist students and faculty and conduct collaborative research work.
We have many exciting research projects and opportunities for graduate students in the CREWES program.
Students accepted for Graduate Studies in Geophysics under the supervision of a CREWES associated faculty member are offered a CREWES Graduate Fellowship unless they have other funding. CREWES has limited financial resources, so students with external funding are welcome.
Fellowships are for full-time study and work on an assigned research project within the Department, possible teaching assistantship duties, or both.
CREWES fellowships will provide support during the academic year, September 1 to April 30. Summer research fellowships are also available to graduate students that are at the University of Calgary working on their thesis for the period May through August.
If you are interested in Graduate Studies with CREWES, you must apply through the Department of Geoscience at the link below. Do not apply directly to CREWES; however, you may contact any CREWES Faculty member to discuss supervisory and research possibilities. All applicants must meet the minimum requirements established by the Faculty of Graduate Studies at the University of Calgary.
