Requests for Applications for
Nuclear Science and Engineering
Scholarships and Fellowships
The Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Nuclear Energy (NE) today announced two new Requests for
Applications (RFAs) that seek applicants for undergraduate scholarships and graduate fellowships in
nuclear science and engineering fields of study.
NE expects to award up to $4.6 million for up to 70 undergraduate scholarships and 30 graduate
fellowships to a diverse group of U.S. students and legal permanent residents via the open and
competitive process defined in the RFAs.
Undergraduate scholarships are $5,000 for one year. The maximum award for fellowships is
anticipated to be $50,000 a year for three years, with an additional one time $5,000 allotment to
fund a minimum 10-week internship at a DOE national laboratory or other designated facility.
Applications for the Scholarship and Fellowship RFAs are due on May 23, 2013 at 8:00 pm ET, and
Log on to the INL website to apply

INL Internships Available
The Idaho National Laboratory offers internships at
a variety of levels – undergraduate through post
doctoral with valuable work and life experience.
INL internships, like the lab's research, span a
wide range of science, technology, engineering and
math (STEM) fields and support roles.
INL interns also receive extensive training - like
resume' writing and communication strategies - to
help improve their "soft skills." In addition,
they can attend lectures that feature worldrenowned researchers discussing a broad range of
energy topics from nuclear non-proliferation to
hybrid energy systems.
Interns participate in lab wide tours to enhance
their knowledge of INL, its history and
missions. The INL site tours include visits to
Experimental Breeder Reactor-1, where nuclear
fission generated the world's first usable amount
of electricity, the Advanced Test Reactor, and a 3D

National Research Fellowships
The National Research Council of the National Academies sponsors a
number of awards for graduate, postdoctoral and senior researchers at
participating federal laboratories and affiliated institutions. These
awards include generous stipends ranging from $42,000 - $80,000 per
year for recent Ph.D. recipients, and higher for additional
experience. Graduate entry level stipends begin at $30,000. These
awards provide the opportunity for recipients to do independent
research in some of the best-equipped and staffed laboratories in the
U.S. Research opportunities are open to U.S. citizens, permanent
residents, and for some of the laboratories, foreign nationals.
Detailed program information, including online applications,
instructions on how to apply and a list of participating laboratories, is
available on the NRC Research Associateship Programs Website (see
link above).
Questions should be directed to the NRC at 202-334-2760 (phone) or
rap@nas.edu.
Applicants should contact prospective Adviser(s) at the lab(s) prior to
the application deadline to discuss their research interests and funding
opportunities.
