DOE National Nuclear Security Administration Stewardship Science Graduate Fellowship
As part of its science and national security missions, the U.S. Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration (DOE NNSA) supports a broad spectrum of basic and applied research in science and engineering at the agency's national laboratories, at universities and in industry. Because of its continuing needs, NNSA has a special interest in encouraging development of the next generation of leaders in stewardship science. The DOE NNSA SSGF program's primary objective is to encourage the training of scientists by providing financial support to talented students who study and research designated areas of stewardship science accompanied by practical work experience at DOE NNSA research facilities.

Link Foundation - Advanced Stimulation & Training Fellowships
The award consists of a two-year fellowship of $28,000 per year for two years to be used for the Fellow's academic year and summer stipend. Tenable in the US and Canada. The research proposed in these applications for this fellowship must embody the objective and characteristics found in the original flight training simulator; i.e., the training and preparation of individuals to perform in complex, interactive, real-time environments. Thus the emphasis is on training rather than education, and on simulation for training purposes rather than for design-development or product-research purposes.
Citizenship: Unrestricted

U.S. Department of Commerce/National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration - Dr. Nancy Foster Scholarship Program
NOAA's Office of National Marine Sanctuaries is seeking applications for the Dr. Nancy Foster Scholarship Program from individuals, particularly women and minorities, who, due to financial constraints, may otherwise not be able to pursue an advanced degree in oceanography, marine biology, or maritime archaeology (including all science, engineering, social science, and resource management of ocean and coastal areas). The program seeks to increase the number of women and minorities in these scientific disciplines, particularly as they relate to the mission of the Office of National Marine Sanctuaries (ONMS). The Office of National Marine Sanctuaries conducts, sponsors, and facilitates research to better understand ecosystems and cultural resources in marine sanctuaries, their changing condition, and the significance of threats.
Citizenship: Not specified
