Establish a Scholarship

Do you have a passion for a particular area of research? Would you like to honor or memorialize a loved one, friend, or colleague? Would you yourself like to be recognized as a supporter of student research?

Please consider establishing an RMS-SEPM scholarship!

Requirements for new scholarships:

  • Scholarships must support, and not conflict with, RMS-SEPM’s mission, as state on our home page.

  • Neither the name, purpose, nor terms of the scholarship may conflict with RMS-SEPM’s values and ethics as stated here.

  • The recipients of the scholarship must be enrolled in an accredited academic institution located in Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, or Wyoming; and/or be conducting research in those states.

  • The amount of the annual scholarship award must be a multiple of $100 and be no less than $500.

  • The scholarship must be established with a minimum initial donation to the General Scholarship fund of five times the annual scholarship award.

  • Maintenance of the scholarship award above the initial donation will be through donations to and sponsorships of the General Scholarship Fund and through replenishment from general RMS-SEPM funds when necessary.

  • RMS-SEPM will make a good-faith effort to continue to offer the scholarship following depletion of the initial donation, but reserves the right to discontinue offering the scholarship if it becomes financially unfeasible to do so.
