 <title>Ocean Leadership&#039;s Fellowship for Students of Historically Black Colleges and Universities</title>
 <link>http://oceanleadership.org/diversity/fellows</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Since 2005, in its role as the U.S. Implementing Organization (USIO) for the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP), Ocean Leadership has funded a fellowship for students of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The fellowship provides a mechanism for undergraduate and graduate scholars to explore a wide range of careers in scientific ocean drilling and large-scale science program management. The fellowship is open to students majoring in communications, education, and/or science and engineering fields, who have significant interests in the ocean and/or Earth sciences, and are enrolled at an HBCU.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For additional information, please contact, Margo Morell, Assistant Director, Ocean Drilling Programs, at mmorell@oceanleadership.org&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;og_rss_groups&quot;&gt;&lt;ul class=&quot;links&quot;&gt;&lt;li class=&quot;first last og_links&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/diversity&quot; class=&quot;og_links&quot;&gt;Diversity&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
