Utö Marine Field Fellowship
What could you learn by taking your master’s project into the field? The Utö Marine Field Fellowship supports KTH master’s students who want to carry out research on and around Utö in the Stockholm archipelago. At the Utö Marine Field Lab, you can connect your research with practical work in the Baltic Sea’s coastal environment.
Who can apply
KTH master’s students from all disciplines are invited to apply in teams of two. Your project should include fieldwork on or around Utö. Topics might include coastal water quality, wetland restoration or new ways to monitor coastal ecosystems.
What the fellowship offers
Initiativ Utö plans to support two projects a year for three years, starting in 2027. The fellowship includes financial support, travel and accommodation on Utö. Tell us what field or laboratory facilities your project would need so we can discuss what is available.
How to apply
Prepare a project proposal in English of no more than one page. Include both team members’ names, KTH programmes and email addresses. Briefly describe:
- Your research question and why Utö is a good place to investigate it.
- How you would carry out the project and when you would like to do the fieldwork.
- What equipment, laboratory access or other practical support you would need.
