Science (M.Sc.) or Doctoral (Ph.D.) degrees in Earth and space sciences, or

scientific goals.  Awards resulting from this competitive selection will be
made in the form of training grants to the respective universities.



The deadline for NEW applications is February 1, 2016, and the deadline for
