The Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES) announces the 2009 Thacher Scholars Award, to be given to secondary school students (grades 9-12) demonstrating the best use of geospatial technologies or data to study Earth.
Three cash awards will be given: 1st place—$2,000; 2nd place—$1,000; and 3rd place—$500. Entries can be submitted by individuals or teams. In the case of team entries, the cash award will be split equally among the winning team members.
In addition to prizes for the winning students, the teachers of the first, second- and third-place students or teams will receive a $200 amazon.com gift card. If participation is part of an after-school club or other activity independent of school, the student or team can identify an adult “coach” who would be eligible for this award (e.g., a parent, club leader, etc.).
