Subject: The DOE Office of Science Graduate Student Research (SCGSR)
program is now accepting applications!
Dear Colleagues,
The Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Science is pleased to
announce that the Office of Science Graduate Student Research (SCGSR)
program is now accepting applications for the 2017 Solicitation 1.
Applications are due 5:00pm ET on Tuesday May 16, 2017.
Starting from 2015 Solicitation 2, the SCGSR program is open to graduate
students with Permanent Resident status, in addition to U.S. Citizens,
who meet all other eligibility requirements. Detailed information about
the program, including eligibility requirements and access to the online
application system, can be found at: http://science.energy.gov/wdts/scgsr/.
The SCGSR program supports supplemental awards to outstanding U.S.
graduate students to conduct part of their graduate thesis research at a
DOE national laboratory in collaboration with a DOE laboratory scientist
for a period of 3 to 12 consecutive months-with the goal of preparing
graduate students for scientific and technical careers critically
important to the DOE Office of Science mission.
The SCGSR program is open to current Ph.D. students in qualified
graduate programs at accredited U.S. academic institutions, who are
conducting their graduate thesis research in targeted areas of
importance to the DOE Office of Science. The research opportunity is
expected to advance the graduate students' overall doctoral
thesis/dissertation while providing access to the expertise, resources,
and capabilities available at the DOE laboratories. The supplemental
award provides for additional, incremental costs for living and travel
expenses directly associated with conducting the SCGSR research project
at the DOE host laboratory during the award period.
The Office of Science expects to make approximately 50 awards in 2017
Solicitation 1, for project periods beginning anytime between October
30, 2017 and February 28, 2018.
Since its inception in 2014, the SCGSR program has provided support to
over 200 graduate awardees from about 90 different universities to
conduct thesis research at DOE national laboratories across the nation.
The SCGSR program is sponsored and managed by the DOE Office of
Science's Office of Workforce Development for Teachers and Scientists
(WDTS), in collaboration with the six Office of Science research
programs offices and the DOE national laboratories, and the Oak Ridge
Institute of Science and Education (ORISE).
For any questions, please contact the SCGSR Program Manager, Dr. Ping
