Encourage good students, especially students from under-represented groups, to consider careers in the scholarly professions We are pleased to announce fellowship opportunities for students working in any area of study. Competition is intense, and fellowships usually have been awarded to applicants finishing their sophomore or junior years with GPAs above 3.2.
Some preference is given to students with no prior summer fellowship support.
To promote discussion among student researchers, regular meetings of fellows in affiliated disciplines will be organized by the faculty area coordinators. Cross-disciplinary exchange will be facilitated by the scheduling of lunchtime plenary gatherings, featuring guest speakers, lab tours and round table discussion. To ensure the success of these events and in keeping with the objectives of the program, independent projects with remote faculty supervision will not be supported. Funding is available from a variety of programs , each of which has specific requirements and conditions. Applicants should review each program and determine if they qualify and are willing to accept support from the program.
