The "CAMPUS AWARD: Research for a sustainable future" was established in 2016 by the KELLNER & STOLL FOUNDATION FOR CLIMATE AND THE ENVIRONMENT, the Leibniz Center for Tropical Marine Research (ZMT), and the University of Bremen. The organizers received support from the University of Bremen Alumni Association (Alumni der Universität Bremen e. V.) as early as the first round of the award. In 2017–18, the association joined as a partner.
Excellent young scientists from the University of Bremen can be proposed for this prize from now on. Requirements: Topics of the doctoral or master thesis must include research on sustainable use of resources and protection of the environment, climate and oceans. The prize will be awarded for final theses which push forward sustainable research by their special approaches, methods, results and practical relevance. The submitted theses must have been prepared within the last two years (counted from the respective closing date of applications).
Research for sustainability and marine science
"By offering the CAMPUS AWARD we would like to acknowledge innovative ideas which contribute to maintaining the viability of the earth for future generations", explained Dr. Rita Kellner-Stoll and Rainer Stoll. A prerequisite for sustainable use of natural and particularly marine resources is that the researched knowledge is made available comprehensively, accurately and in a suitable way for practical use. An essential point for the award is a research approach involving all participants engaged in the project "at eye level" and involvement of local partners, enterprises or the civil society", the founders specify.
A high-profile jury comprised will make the final selection.
