THE
LINK FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES FELLOWSHIPS IN THE ENERGY FIELD
In
an effort to foster education and innovation in the area of societal production
and utilization of energy, the Link Foundation invites fellowship applications.
Students
working toward a Ph.D. degree in energy-related fields at universities located
in the U.S. or Canada. Fellowships are offered with a duration of 2 years and
will be paid in two installments of $25,000. It is anticipated that three or
four Link Energy Fellowships will be awarded in 2009. In recent years, about
50-75 applications have been received. $21,500 is to be used for the Fellow's
stipend, $2,500 is to be used for expenses associated with the Fellow's
research, and $1,000 is to be used for attending one or more technical meetings
and/or publication expenses. Applications are due December 1.
The
Link Foundation provides funds for direct costs, but does NOT support student
tuition, institutional overhead or pooled costs.
