ACMS established the Bruce W. Morrison Research Laboratory in 2018 to provide researchers access to free equipment vital to conducting their research and field work in Mongolia. The laboratory was established thanks to the generous donation from a former ACMS fellow, and allows ACMS to provide practical assistance to the research community in Mongolia.
Available equipment for rent includes a digital caliper, a portable scanner, a 3D scanner, and more.
The Field School is open to all participants, including undergraduate and graduate students, professionals, teachers and life-long learners interested in exploring aspects of Mongolia’s unique culture and geography. All participants will have the opportunity to learn field research techniques, conduct self-selected research projects, travel within Mongolia to urban and countryside areas, and gain a unique insight into the landscapes and people of Mongolia.
The ACMS Field Research Fellowship provides support of up to $4,000 to support short-term student, post-doctoral, or faculty field research in Mongolia in the Summer or Fall. The program is funded by the US State Department Educational and Cultural Affairs Bureau and the Council of American Overseas Research Centers.
