Title: CaGIS Scholarship Award
Sponsor: American Congress on Surveying and Mapping (ACSM)
SYNOPSIS:
The sponsor awards two scholarships to CaGIS student members,
recognizing academic achievement and encouraging the continuing
education of outstanding cartography, geographic information systems
(GIS), and geographic information science (GIScience) students.
Scholarships are awarded for research advancing the disciplines of
cartography or GIScience rather than research applying GIS or mapping
as a technique.
