Applications for the Department of Energy Computational Science Graduate Fellowship (DOE CSGF) are being accepted through Jan. 15, 2026, with an informational webinar set for Dec. 3, 2025. Candidates must be U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents who plan full-time, uninterrupted study toward a Ph.D. at an accredited U.S. university.
The DOE CSGF’s interdisciplinary science and engineering track supports students in a range of fields, but all share a common element: applying high-performance computing (HPC) to complex research problems. A second track supports those studying applied mathematics, statistics, computer science, computer engineering or computational science – in one of those departments or their academic equivalent − with research interests that help scientists use emerging high-performance systems more effectively. This includes students focused on issues in HPC as a broad enabling technology rather than a particular science or engineering application. Fellows’ research increasingly includes elements of quantum computing and artificial intelligence, positioning them to contribute to national priorities.
