Annual Meeting Scholarships for Early Career Professionals

Early Career Professional $600 Scholarships

Ten scholarships valued at $600 each are available for Western Section Early Career Professional (ECP) Members who have graduated within 3 years with at least a Bachelor’s degree in a wildlife-related field but are unemployed, underemployed, or employed outside of the wildlife profession.  

We know it’s hard to land that permanent full-time position, and we want to help you advance your career by joining us and the rest of your colleagues at the Annual Meeting!  

Annual Meeting Registration is included in the scholarship. You have the freedom to use the remaining scholarship value to cover the costs that fit your needs, whether it’s travel, lodging, or attending other fee-based Annual Meeting events.  

Applications are due December 1, 2025.   Link to Application (Select the TWS-WS Annual Meeting Grant Application.)
