DOE NNSA SSGF Accepts Six Students for 2022-2023 Class
Students from the University of Notre Dame, the University of Texas at El Paso, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Colorado School of Mines, Stanford University and the University of Connecticut will join the Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration Stewardship Science Graduate Fellowship (DOE NNSA SSGF) in fall 2022.
The DOE NNSA established the program in 2006 to meet a demand for scientists with deep training in areas of interest to stewardship science. It supports the education of doctoral students researching high energy density physics (HEDP), nuclear science (NS), or materials under extreme conditions and hydrodynamics (MUEC).
Students joining the DOE NNSA SSGF for its 17th (2022-2023) academic year are:*
Kelsey Anderson University of Notre Dame Actinide Chemistry (MUEC & NS) Sofia Gomez University of Texas at El Paso Mechanical Engineering (MUEC) Lansing Horan, IV Massachusetts Institute of Technology Plasma Science and Fusion (HEDP & NS) |
Christopher Jasien Colorado School of Mines Metallurgy and Materials (MUEC) Derek Kuldinow Stanford University Aeronautics and Astronautics (HEDP) Elyse Schriber University of Connecticut Materials (MUEC) |
The new fellows will receive exceptional benefits, including a yearly stipend, full payment of university tuition and required fees and an annual academic allowance. Renewable for up to four years, the fellowship also includes a three-month practicum at one of four DOE national defense laboratory sites.
Additional details for each fellow will be available in September via the program’s online fellow directory. Meanwhile, please contact us for further information.
