Fully Funded PhD Scholarship for Service-Learning in New Zealand

[Announcement from he-sl listserv]

By using Tulane's post-Katrina focus on community engagement as our inspiration, the University of Canterbury in Christchurch, New Zealand has sought to implement service-learning across the institution as our response to the devastating earthquakes that rocked our city in 2010 and 2011.  As part of our efforts, we have an amazing opportunity for a PhD student to conduct research on the connection of higher education, service-learning, and natural disasters through a $60,000 scholarship that includes tuition and living expenses for 3 years.  Please consider this quickly as we need to have expressions of interest by October 14.  Enrolment start date can be flexible.

Please contact Dr Billy O'Steen at billy.osteen@canterbury.ac.nz if you're interested!
