He left to become Director of the Atlantic Geoscience Centre at the Bedford Institute of Oceanography. Dr. Keen devoted much of his time and interest towards encouraging young people, especially women, towards science. This award was established to encourage greater participation of women in science (including teaching in science). The Keen Award provides stipend funding for a female undergraduate student summer research experience in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences similar to an NSERC USRA. The successful student will work closely with a supervisor at HÂþ»­ with the goal of exposing the student to scientific research work in general and to specific research in the field of Earth and Environmental Sciences.Ìý
