The EPSCoR Graduate Fellowship Program funds graduate education for NSF GRFP Honorable Mention recipients within three years of distinction. It provides three years of stipend ($37,000/year) and education allowance ($16,000/year) to support fellows pursuing graduate degrees in NSF-specified disciplines at EPSCoR institutions. Proposals must request support for at least three fellows, with fellows allowed up to five years to use the support.
Eligible applicants are institutions of higher education in the US with EPSCoR jurisdiction campuses. PIs must hold full-time, continuing appointments at eligible institutions. Proposals must be submitted by institutions on behalf of faculty.
