NSF Graduate Research Fellowship (GRFP)
Prospective Applicant Webinar (3rd of 4)

September 11, 11:00AM

The NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP) helps ensure the quality, vitality, and diversity of the scientific and engineering workforce of the United States. A goal of the program is to broaden participation of the full spectrum of diverse talents in STEM. The five-year fellowship provides three years of financial support inclusive of an annual stipend of $37,000.

The GRFP recognizes and supports outstanding graduate students who have demonstrated the potential to be high achieving scientists and engineers, early in their careers. Applicants must be pursuing full-time research-based master’s and doctoral degrees in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) or in STEM education at accredited US institutions.

Seniors and early-career graduate students are eligible to apply.

Staff from NSF are hosting informational webinars for prospective applicants throughout the fall of 2024.  To learn more about the NSF-GRFP, and to pre-register for an upcoming webinar, visit https://www.nsfgrfp.org/events/.
