The Office of Science Graduate Student Research Program is Now Accepting Applications

The SCGSR program provides supplemental funds for graduate awardees to conduct part of their thesis research at a host DOE laboratory in collaboration with a resident scientist within a defined award period. Graduate students currently pursuing Ph.D. degrees in areas of physics, chemistry, material sciences, biology (non-medical), mathematics, engineering, computer or computational sciences, or specific areas of environmental sciences that are aligned with the mission of the Office of Science are eligible to apply for the research awards provided by the SCGSR program. Please note that areas of R&D explored by the DOE Isotope Program are eligible. The research projects are expected to advance the graduate awardees’ overall doctoral work while providing access to the expertise, resources, and capabilities available at the DOE laboratories. * While officially separate Program Offices, the DOE Isotope Program will still be listed under the Office of Science for Nuclear Physics in this release.

Applications are due at 5:00 pm EST on Wednesday, May 5, 2021.
