The primary goal of the Burlington Gem and Mineral Club (BGMC) Ethel and William Schuele Scholarship is to promote and support original research on Vermont geology by undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in a college or university within New England or New York. The scholarship does not seek to cover all of the researcher's expenses but instead should be viewed as a professional endorsement of the research endeavor. Requests for scholarships are judged on how well the proposed research will advance the science of geology and its related branches within the State of Vermont.
Undergraduate and graduate students who are undertaking original research projects on Vermont geology and related disciplines are eligible for the scholarship. Scholarship applicants need not be members of the BGMC. Graduate and undergraduate students must be currently enrolled in degree-granting institutions within New England or New York and their research must be part of a degree requirement. Post-graduate students, college or university faculty, and institutions are not eligible.
