UW CNT Fellowship Call - Due May 4th

The University of Washington Center for Nanotechnology (CNT) welcomes student-initiated proposals for CNT Graduate Traineeships. These traineeships will provide stipends to excellent students doing frontier, interdisciplinary dissertation research in nanoscale science and technology. Our primary goal is to foster highly talented students' education for leadership positions in academic, governmental, and industrial settings by providing them with financial resources to pursue innovative research projects in high-risk, interdisciplinary areas involving new collaborations at the leading edge of nanoscale science and engineering. Further goals are to provide seed funding for proof-of-principle experiments and theoretical approaches that enhance future funding opportunities, to foster research bridging nanotechnology and medicine, and to promote community outreach. Collaborative off-site research, either domestic or international, is also encouraged, either within year-long traineeships or separately.
