Jefferson Lab EIC Fellowships</h1>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif; color:red">APPLICATIONS DUE MAY 1<sup>st</sup>
</span></strong><span style="color:red"></span></p>
<p>This is the final reminder about the Electron-Ion Collider Center at Jefferson Lab opportunities for graduate and post-doctoral fellowships. As note below, please make sure all materials are send to Britney Kelly
<a href="mailto:bkelly@jlab.org">bkelly@jlab.org</a>. </p>
<p>These fellowships will be awarded for a period of one year to fund EIC-related research, including innovations to maximize scientific output of the EIC and studies to expedite both scientific and experimental readiness for EIC operations. The areas of research
include theory, simulations, detectors, and computing, and fellows are encouraged to spend at least half their fellowship year on site at Jefferson Lab. Each graduate fellowship will provide the awardee’s home institution with a $13,000 stipend. For postdoctoral
fellows, $36,000 will be provided. Limited travel support is also available during the fellowship period. The awardee’s home institute must agree to provide the remaining support for the awardees. </p>
<p>Eligible students must be enrolled full-time in a relevant doctoral program. Postdocs must have a full-time position with a relevant university or laboratory research program. The awardees must devote at least half of their time for the proposed research
during the fellowship period. The awardees may not concurrently hold another major full-time fellowship or internship. The award is limited to one year. </p>
<p>To apply, a research plan for the duration of the fellowship must be provided according to the guidance provided below. The plan should be written by the applicant together with their university or laboratory advisor. The plan should contain clear goals
and deliverable to be accomplished by the end of the Fellowship. The staff of EIC Center at JLab will also assist in guiding the Fellows.</p>
<p>The applications will be evaluated by a committee according to the following criteria:</p>
