Applications are sought for the 2013-14 Eric Englund Memorial Postgraduate Scholarship, which is to be awarded to a graduate of Oregon State University. This scholarship is to be given for graduate study in:
- agricultural economics (preferably, but not necessarily exclusively, in its international aspects), or
- home economics (Design and Human Environment; Exercise and Sport Science; Human Development and Family Studies; Nutrition)
Study may be pursued in any college or university that the student may select with the advice and approval of the authorities of Oregon State University. Preference will be given to students who intend to pursue graduate study at Oregon State University. Given equal capacity for study, preference will be given to those applicants who may not otherwise have the opportunity for such study. Graduates of any bachelor's or master's degree program at Oregon State University are eligible to apply. In addition, those expecting to receive either a bachelor's or master's degree from OSU by June 2013 may also apply. This scholarship may be given in addition to a departmental graduate teaching or research assistantship. Previous recipients are not eligible to apply. Domestic and international students are eligible to apply.
