Graduate Fellowships |
|
The UW Departments of Mathematics,
Applied
Mathematics, and Statistics
are currently supported by a five-year, $2.7 million dollar grant from
the National Science Foundation's VIGRE
(Vertical Integration Grants for Research and Education) program.
Its purpose is to integrate the various approaches to applied and computational
mathematical sciences being pursued in the participating departments, and
to provide a better and more integrated learning environment for students
at all levels, undergraduate through postdoctoral.
The VIGRE grant supports graduate
students through VIGRE Graduate Fellowships. Each year several
VIGRE fellowships will be awarded to especially promising PhD
students in each of the three participating departments. These
fellowships are one year in duration and provide two academic
quarters and a summer of support without teaching duties.
Applications are due in early May. VIGRE Fellows are selected by
the Graduate Program Committee at the end of Spring Quarter of each
year. |
