Department of Energy Computational Science Graduate Fellowship Program
The DOE Computational Science Fellowship Program is designed to support
highly capable students pursuing graduate study in applied sciences
or engineering disciplines with applications in high performance
computing. Fellows must also participate in off-campus research at
designated practicum centers.
The program offers a minimum of $18,000 annual stipend and payment of
tuition and fees for graduate study in scientific and technical
discliplines using computational science methods. The program is
open to U. S. citizens and permanent resident aliens who have completed
their first year of graduate school. Appointments are reviewed
annually and may be renewed up to a limit of four years.
Deadline: January 26

The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded the
Computing Research Association (CRA) $530,000 for continued support of
a distributed mentor project for undergraduate females in computer
science and computer engineering (CS&E). The intent of the program is
to increase the number of women entering graduate school in CS&E by
involving them in research at a university with a female mentor.
Because of the limited number of female researchers in CS&E who can
serve as role models and mentors, we feel the undergraduates should be
brought directly to the professors for a summer of research. Students
will be involved in research and will also learn how a research
university operates, meet graduate students and professors, and get a
chance to observe a successful female researcher up close.
Deadline: Feb. 1
Extended Deadline: Feb. 9

The Universities Space Research Association (USRA), in collaboration with
the NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center's (GSFC) Earth Sciences Directorate,
is offering a limited number of graduate student research opportunities
for Summer. The program is scheduled for June 6 to August 14.
The program is designed to spur interest in interdisciplinary studies within
the Earth system sciences and will enable selected students to pursue
specially-tailored research projects in conjunction with Goddard scientific
mentors.
The program is open to students enrolled in or accepted to a U.S. accredited
graduate program in the Earth, physical or biological sciences, mathematics,
computer science, or engineering. Minorities and women are encouraged
to apply. Students must commit to the full ten week period.

Two more of the very successful CRA Workshops on Academic Careers for
Women in Computer Science are being offered this year. These workshop bring
women just starting their academic careers -- either advanced graduate
students or newly hired faculty -- together with more established
researchers. The more senior women serve as panelists, giving information
and advice on many aspects of academic careers. Topics include the tenure
decision, building a research program, teaching, getting a job, first year
surprises, writing a grant proposal, networking, the perspective from the
smaller schools, time management, and balancing a career with a family.
Each of the workshops is associated with a major conference; the first
is a short version to be held in conjunction with the ACM Computer Science
Conference and the second is a much longer, 1 1/2 day version, to be held in
conjunction with the Federated Computing Research Conference. Travel grants
supported by the National Science Foundation are available for the FCRC
version.
For further information and applications for travel grants (FCRC only),
contact Jan Cuny (cuny@cs.uoregon.edu).
