The NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP) helps ensure the vitality of the human resource base of science and engineering in the United States and reinforces its diversity. The program recognizes and supports outstanding graduate students in NSF-supported
science, technology, engineering, and mathematics disciplines who are pursuing research-based master's and doctoral degrees at accredited United States institutions. </div>
<div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size:11pt; font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
As the oldest graduate fellowship of its kind, the GRFP has a long history of selecting recipients who achieve high levels of success in their future academic and professional careers. The reputation of the GRFP follows recipients and often helps them become
life-long leaders that contribute significantly to both scientific innovation and teaching. Past fellows include numerous Nobel Prize winners, U.S. Secretary of Energy,<span class="x_Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="https://nsfgrfp-2015.asee.org/fellows/profiles/steven_chu" target="_blank" style="color:purple; text-decoration:underline"><span style="color:blue">Steven

Fellows share in the prestige and opportunities that become available when they are selected. Fellows benefit from a three-year annual stipend of $32,000 along with a $12,000 cost of education allowance for tuition and fees (paid to the institution), opportunities
for international research and professional development, and the freedom to conduct their own research at any accredited U.S. institution of graduate education they choose.</div>

The Dissertation Fellowship Program seeks to encourage a new generation of scholars from a wide range of disciplines and professional fields to undertake research relevant to the improvement of education. These $25,000 fellowships support individuals whose
dissertations show potential for bringing fresh and constructive perspectives to the history, theory, or practice of formal or informal education anywhere in the world.</div>
<div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size:11pt; font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
This highly competitive program aims to identify the most talented researchers conducting dissertation research related to education. The Dissertation Fellowship program receives many more applications than it can fund. This year, up to 600 applications are
anticipated and about 30 fellowships will be awarded.<br>

The Michigan Society of Fellows was founded in 1970 through grants from the Ford Foundation and Horace H. Rackham School of Graduate Studies for the purpose of promoting academic and creative excellence in the humanities, the arts, the social, physical, and
life sciences, and in the professions. In 2007, the Mellon Foundation awarded a grant to add four Mellon Fellows annually in the humanities, expanding the number of fellowships awarded each year from four to eight. The objective of the Society is to provide
financial and intellectual support for individuals holding advanced degrees in their fields, who are selected for their outstanding achievement, professional promise, and interdisciplinary interests. We invite applications from qualified candidates for three-year
fellowships at the University of Michigan.</div>
<div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size:11pt; font-family:Calibri,sans-serif; text-align:justify">
Candidates should be near the beginning of their professional careers. <span class="x_Apple-converted-space"> </span><b>Those selected for fellowships must have received the Ph.D. degree or comparable artistic or professional degree between June 1, 2012, and
September 1, 2015</b>. Fellows are appointed as Assistant Professors in appropriate departments and as Postdoctoral Scholars in the Michigan Society of Fellows. They are expected to be in residence in Ann Arbor during the academic years of the fellowship,
to teach for the equivalent of one academic year, to participate in the informal intellectual life of the Society, and to devote time to their independent research or artistic projects. This is not an artist-in-residence program but rather an opportunity
to develop one’s work in conversation with fellows from a range of disciplines during the three years of the fellowship. Applications from degree candidates and recipients of the Ph.D. or comparable artistic or professional degree from the University of Michigan
will not be considered.</div>
<div style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size:11pt; font-family:Calibri,sans-serif; text-align:justify">
Applications will be reviewed by Society members and University faculty. Final selections will be made in late January by Senior Fellows of the Society. Eight Fellows will be selected for three-year terms to begin September 1, 2015. The annual stipend will
be $55,000.</div>
