Graduate Student Traineeship Opportunities

Students preparing to enter graduate study should consider the availability of IGERT Traineeship Stipends that a number of universities offer in specific fields of study. Over the last five years, the National Science Foundation has granted to proposing university faculties a total of 125 awards in the IGERT program (each of 5-years duration). IGERT awards enable these universities to offer stipend support and tuition allowances to graduate students to engage in research in exciting interdisciplinary areas of science and engineering.

Interested applicants should study the Web pages of the various IGERT award sites for descriptions of their programs, for contact information on the participating faculty, and, importantly, for specific application procedures. These sites are all linked to the NSF IGERT Web page at http://www.nsf.gov/igert. Please note that stipend support from an IGERT funded program is available only to U. S. citizens or permanent residents, although universities may offer non-U.S. citizens other means of support to participate in the IGERT activities.
