The Association of Polar Early Career Scientists (APECS), together with
the University of the Arctic and the International Antarctic Institute,
is pleased to announce the 'Polar Graduate Programmes Database.' It can
be accessed at: http://apecs.is/graduate-programmes.

The database is intended as a resource for young researchers looking for
graduate programs related to polar and cryospheric research, and also to
help graduate programs recruit new students. It includes graduate and
certificate programs as well as short courses that have a focus or
specialty in any field relating to the Arctic, Antarctic, alpine, or
other areas within the cryosphere--ranging from social sciences and law
to ecology, geology, physics, and more. The purpose is to provide
prospective students with information on those programs, such as
disciplinary focus areas, website links, typical program duration,
application deadlines, costs, and (where available) financial support.

Universities and individuals are encouraged to enter program information
directly to the database, and to post current openings for graduate
research and teaching assistantships on the APECS jobs page, at:
http://apecs.is/jobs.
