DOE NNSA SSGF Accepts Five Students for 2021-2022 Class
Students from the University of Colorado Boulder, Princeton University, Washington University in St. Louis, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Vanderbilt University will join the Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration Stewardship Science Graduate Fellowship (DOE NNSA SSGF) in fall 2021.
The DOE NNSA established the program in 2006 to meet a demand for scientists with deep training in areas of interest to stewardship science. It supports the education of doctoral students researching high energy density physics, nuclear science, or materials under extreme conditions and hydrodynamics. Students joining the DOE NNSA SSGF for its 16th (2021-2022) academic year are:
|
John Copley Princeton University Materials Under Extreme Conditions Garrett King Washington University in St. Louis Nuclear Science River Leversee University of Colorado Boulder Materials Under Extreme Conditions |
Benjamin Reichelt Massachusetts Institute of Technology High Energy Density Physics Yoni Xiong Vanderbilt University Nuclear Science |
The new fellows will receive exceptional benefits, including a yearly stipend, full payment of university tuition and required fees (during the appointment period) and an annual academic allowance. Renewable for up to four years, the fellowship also includes a three-month practicum at one of four DOE national defense laboratory sites.
Additional details for each fellow will be available in September via the program’s online fellow directory. Meanwhile, please contact us for further information.
