CSGF Announces Record Incoming Class for 2016-17
The Department of Energy Computational Science Graduate Fellowship (DOE CSGF) was established in 1991 to train and produce the country's next generation of leaders in computational science. More than 400 students have been named fellows in the time since, each a representative for computing's capacity to advance science across a variety of disciplines.
A record 27 new awardees — the fellowship's twenty-sixth incoming class — will begin their studies this fall:
| Riley Brady University of Colorado Atmospheric and Oceanic Dynamics Brian Cornille University of Wisconsin-Madison Nuclear Engineering and Engineering Physics Emily Crabb Massachusetts Institute of Technology Condensed Matter Theory Julia Ebert Harvard University Bioengineering Sarah Elliott University of Georgia Computational Chemistry Jenelle Feather University of California, Berkeley Neuroscience Sarah Gady Princeton University Computational Science and Engineering Claire-Alice Hebert Stanford University Applied Physics Daniel Jacobson California Institute of Technology Computational Chemistry Harshil Kamdar California Institute of Technology Natural Sciences Kelly Kochanski University of Colorado Earth Surface Processes Brett Larsen Stanford University Physics Yuexia Lin Harvard University Applied Mathematics Thomas Ludwig Stanford University Chemical Engineering |
Sean Marks University of Pennsylvania Chemical Engineering Kayla McCue Princeton University Quantitative and Computational Biology Kelly Moran Duke University Statistics Ian Ochs Princeton University Plasma Physics Mario Ortega University of California, Berkeley Nuclear Engineering Nicholas Rivera Massachusetts Institute of Technology Optical Physics Amaresh Sahu University of California, Berkeley Biophysics Andrés Salcedo Ohio State University Astronomy Clay Sanders Duke University Civil Engineering/Computational Mechanics Sukin Sim Harvard University Chemical Physics Laura Watkins University of Chicago Theoretical Chemistry Blake Wetherton University of Wisconsin-Madison Plasma Physics Cristina White Stanford University Mechanical Engineering |
As part of the program, these individuals receive exceptional benefits including a yearly stipend; full payment of university tuition and required fees (during the appointment period); and an annual academic allowance. Renewable for up to four years, the fellowship is guided by a comprehensive program of study that requires focused coursework in the areas of science/engineering, computer science and applied mathematics. It also includes a three-month practicum at one of 21 Department of Energy laboratories or sites across the country.
Additional details for each fellow will be available via the program's online fellow directory on or after September 1, 2016. Meanwhile, please contact us for further information.
