=== MMUF & WCURF ===
The OCC fellowships give students the resources needed to carry out virtually any internship. Applicants submit a proposal, describing the internship in as much detail as possible. The keys to a winning application are including as much detail as possible (so the committee knows you’re serious and qualified) and making connections to both past experience and long-term career goals.
Grant recipients receive a check at the beginning of the summer and are expected to use it to cover expenses related to the internship (housing, food, transportation). They are also expected to submit a 1-2-page write-up to Ron Gallagher before September 1 after the internship.

Each summer the Center for Environmental Studies offers limited funding to support student projects including scholarly research, career-related internships, and creative endeavors. All Williams students are eligible to apply for CES funding, regardless of major, concentration, or year(graduating seniors are not eligible). All proposals must demonstrate an environmental component, although our interpretation of "environmental" is broad.
All students who accept funding from CES are expected to give a public presentation about their Summer work during the following academic year by giving a log lunch talk, a gallery exhibit, or some other public presentation. A written report of the project( 5 - 10 pages for internships; 15 - 20 pages for research projects) must be submitted in the fall, along with a 300-600 word article for the CES newsletter,"Field Notes".
The maximum stipend for research, internships, and creative projects is $3400 for 10 weeks of full-time work. Applications will be accepted for part-time projects, or projects taking less than 10 weeks. CES encourages students to seek funding from additional sources. In the case that partial funding is obtained elsewhere, CES will provide not more than the difference between the funding secured and $3400 for 10 weeks of full-time work.
